Cambridge, Mass., -- On October 25, 2007, GreatDomains closed its latest live auction powered by Sedo. Bidders from 37 countries participated in the auction, which featured premium .COM and .NET domains being sold by members from around the world. At the close of the auction, 40 domains were sold to new owners from countries including the United States, Luxembourg, United Kingdom, Canada, Belgium, and Australia.

Participating in the auction was turntable.com, which closed at $45,000, memorycard.com, which closed at $41,267, and silkscreen.com, which closed at $32,500. The total dollar amount of the auction neared the $300,000 mark, thanks in part to other domains such as fold.com ($25,000) and wwi.com ($22,500).

Sedo acquired GreatDomains, the online platform for buying and selling premium domain names in June 2007. This was the latest in a series of live premium domain auctions to be run on GreatDomains.com.
