Five aged GoDaddy domains for November 2: Divorcing.org at $116, and the first ceiling to hold in fifteen

GoDaddy ran six sessions from October 26 to October 31 and turned over $571,406 across 466 lots. 123456

The six sessions before that took $515,683 across 482 lots. Average price rose from $1,070 a lot to $1,226, and 131 lots cleared $1,000 against 128 the week before.

The money went to numbers. 88838.com closed at $53,000 on 151 bids, 8225.com at $33,500 on 118, and 0230.com at $20,250 on 87. 26 Seven all-digit .coms sold, averaging $18,500 against $1,247 for .com lots overall.

Twenty-five .org lots averaged $1,575, above the .com average; twenty .co lots averaged $993 and the ten .net lots $632. Four-letter .coms stayed cheap, sixteen of them averaging $705, with ocka.com at $5,100 the only one past $2,000.

Bids and price kept coming apart. 345.co drew 170 bids and closed at $3,601; herzone.com drew 154 for $3,055; x456.com drew 140 and closed at $8,088. 4

DropCatch ran five recaps from October 26 to October 30, totalling $355,590, led by orbinite.com at $37,000 and cinqueterre.com at $26,138. 78 DomainGang covers Monday to Friday, so Saturday's session has no recap.

DNJournal's chart still covers the two weeks ending October 18. Its new report has not landed, so every Sedo, SnapNames and Atom comparable below carries that window. 9

Renewals rose yesterday. Atom took .com renewals from $10.85 to $11.65 on November 1, following a Verisign wholesale increase. 10 A five-year hold on any name here now carries $58.25 in renewals before anything else.

Today's board lists 53 lots at an average bid of $202, a median of $31 and a top of $2,700. 11 Nineteen lots fall inside this issue's price and age filter.

The five names published on October 26 all closed that evening. 1

Four closed between 2.4 and 14.8 times their 8 a.m. bid. RBRM closed at 1.13 times and stayed under its ceiling: the first of fifteen picks to hold one in three weeks.

RBRM was also the only pick already priced near where its pattern clears, at $862 for a four-letter .com in a week when sixteen of them averaged $705. A 1.5x ceiling describes a lot like that one.

Three names were cut last week, and their closings price the cuts. HirePlumber.com closed at $514 and BoxDeal.com at $1,380, both below what the gate refused.

WaterDamageDefense.com closed at $5,001 on 133 bids after failing the 3x rule at a $1,025 bid. 1 The gate cost a 4.9x return there.

Every figure below was read at 8:08 a.m. on November 2, 2026, in UTC-08, and all clocks use it. The board had refreshed an hour before the read, so treat each bid as a floor.

The filter: a bid of $50 to $1,500, at least eight years of registration, one comparable-pattern sale at three times the bid or better, and one comparable above $1,000 in the past 18 months.

All five show zero Domain Authority, Page Authority and Trust Flow, so each qualifies on its words alone. 1213141516

Two lots cleared the filter and were cut anyway. OPTIMALPATH.COM carries a $1,009 bid from 12 bidders on 22 years, and a $1,513.50 ceiling would sit at 44% of a $3,445 appraisal, the worst basis on the board. 17 NODERED.COM has a $150 bid from 27 bidders and a live trademark on its name. 18

NameJet and DropCatch supplied no live row carrying both a bid and a clock, though both got closer. NameJet's own lot pages open in a browser-rendered fetch and give a registration age, an EstiBot figure and a join deadline to the minute: November 3, 1:45 p.m. Pacific, for alure.com. 19 The bid field on those pages loads empty. The public listing that carries NameJet prices shows 527 lots, zero bids and minimum bids of $39 to $71, ending "in 1d" or "in 3d". 20

DropCatch's own site serves an application shell with no readable listing. Its most-watched live auction this morning is immortal.org at $8,249, closing today, five and a half times above this issue's band. 21 Both platforms enter through completed results.

DIVORCING.ORG carries a $116 bid from 14 bidders on 23 years of registration, closing at 12:34 p.m. UTC-08. ExpiredAuctions rates it 65/100 and appraises it at $2,609. 12

Comparable sales: legalrepresentation.com at $1,375 on 35 bids on October 31, ustaxes.com at $1,475 on 63 bids on October 29, and oecdobserver.org at $8,472 in DropCatch's October 27 recap. 4622 Three times the $116 bid is $348, and all three clear it several times over.

Appraisal logic and ceiling. Divorce is the most expensive legal category a small firm buys leads in, and a single-word .org reads as a support organisation rather than a lawyer's shingle. Two kinds of buyer exist: a family-law marketer who wants the traffic, and a nonprofit that wants the name.

$174.00 holds the entry at 6.7% of the appraisal. List on DAN and Sedo at $1,400 and pitch family-law agencies, mediation networks and divorce-support nonprofits. Six months needs a lead-gen operator shopping that quarter; 18 months matches how the legal comps traded; a five-year hold carries $58.25 in renewals. Confidence: high-confidence. Ceiling: $174.00.

RESUMEDESIGN.COM shows a $205 bid from 32 bidders on 29 years of registration, closing at 12:20 p.m. UTC-08. ExpiredAuctions rates it 65/100 and appraises it at $4,437. 15

Comparable sales: jobland.com at $4,233 on SnapNames and jobsitetrailers.com at $6,999 on Sedo, both inside DNJournal's October 5-18 window, plus cvpage.com at $504 in DropCatch's October 26 recap. 89 Three times the $205 bid is $615; the two career comps clear it and cvpage.com does not.

Appraisal logic and ceiling. Job hunting is a service people pay a stranger to perform, and the resume is the thing they buy. The pair of words states the product without a modifier anyone has to guess at.

$307.50 holds the entry at 6.9% of the appraisal. List on Atom and DAN at $2,900 and pitch resume-writing services, career coaches and outplacement firms. Six months needs one of them rebranding that quarter; 18 months is the normal cadence for a service compound; five years carries five renewals. Confidence: high-confidence. Ceiling: $307.50.

KITCHENTOPS.COM carries a $338 bid from 30 bidders on 26 years of registration, closing at 12:11 p.m. UTC-08. ExpiredAuctions rates it 65/100 and appraises it at $4,794. 14

Comparable sales: allthingscoffee.com at $1,117 on 45 bids on October 28, and grillfanatics.com at $5,250 on Dynadot inside DNJournal's October 5-18 window. 39 Three times the $338 bid is $1,014. Both clear it, allthingscoffee.com by $103.

Appraisal logic and ceiling. Countertop fabricators and remodelers buy leads at high order values, and "kitchen tops" is the trade's own name for the product. Vangura Kitchen Tops, Inc. of Pennsylvania holds several countertop marks, which shows the phrase trades and hands any buyer a namesake to check. 23

$507.00 holds the entry at 10.6% of the appraisal. List on DAN and Afternic at $3,000 and pitch fabricators and remodel lead-gen operators. Six months needs one of them changing names that quarter; 18 months is realistic; five years pays renewals on words that do not decay. Confidence: coin-flip: 30 bidders, and the best comp clears the line by one number. Ceiling: $507.00.

SIUH.COM carries a $339 bid from 33 bidders on 34 years of registration, closing at 11:59 a.m. UTC-08. ExpiredAuctions rates it 71/100 and appraises it at $5,593. 13

Comparable sales: ocka.com at $5,100 on 41 bids on October 30, uopp.com at $1,125 on 38 bids on October 26, and wipd.com at $1,200 in DropCatch's October 27 recap. 1522 Three times the $339 bid is $1,017, and all three clear it. rbrm.com, last week's four-letter pick, closed at $971: the floor of this pattern, just under the line.

Appraisal logic and ceiling. The letters mean nothing on their own, so the buyer is either an organisation whose initials fit or an investor buying the floor. Thirty-four years and 33 bidders say the floor is real.

$508.50 holds the entry at 9.1% of the appraisal. Sell wholesale through NamePros, DAN and the four-letter boards, and skip the end-user campaign. Six months depends on another investor watching that week; 18 months is the realistic window; five years costs five renewals on letters that do not wear out. Confidence: high-confidence on the exit, coin-flip on the upside. Ceiling: $508.50.

TRAVELTAP.COM carries a $486 bid from 12 bidders on 11 years of registration, closing at 11:04 a.m. UTC-08. ExpiredAuctions rates it 67/100 and appraises it at $4,057. 16

Comparable sales: worldwidetravel.com at $2,808 and vacationkids.com at $2,250, both on SnapNames inside DNJournal's October 5-18 window, and funtravelog.com at $2,263 on 28 bids on October 28. 39 Three times the $486 bid is $1,458, and all three clear it.

Appraisal logic and ceiling. Travel is a high-ticket vertical where a short pair of words does the work of a logo. Eleven years is the youngest registration here, and twelve bidders is the thinnest field on this slate.

$729.00 holds the entry at 18% of the appraisal, the widest share of any ceiling in this issue. List on Atom at $3,400 for the brandable price and on DAN for the wholesale bid. Six months needs a travel operator launching that quarter; 18 months is typical; five years carries five renewals. Confidence: coin-flip. Ceiling: $729.00.

A search restricted to a public mirror of USPTO records returned nothing on SIUH, RESUMEDESIGN or TRAVELTAP. DIVORCING returned compounds only: DIVORCING DIABETES, an application filed in July 2026 covering health and wellness information, and CERTIFIED DIVORCE SPECIALIST. 24 KITCHENTOPS returned no mark on the phrase.

NODERED.COM was cut on this gate: Node-RED is a registered trademark of the OpenJS Foundation. 25

What was run is a records check on exact terms. Close variants, and the protection each live mark covers, remain your own work at the USPTO's search before you bid. 26

What the money buys, in order: DIVORCING.ORG at $174.00 takes a single word in a legal vertical at 6.7% of the appraisal; RESUMEDESIGN.COM at $307.50 names a paid service with three dated comps; KITCHENTOPS.COM at $507.00 is the trade's own phrase with a one-number margin; SIUH.COM at $508.50 is 34 years on a four-letter .com with a liquid exit; TRAVELTAP.COM at $729.00 asks the most for the thinnest field.

TRAVELTAP.COM closes first, at 11:04 a.m. UTC-08, then SIUH.COM at 11:59, KITCHENTOPS.COM at 12:11, RESUMEDESIGN.COM at 12:20 and DIVORCING.ORG at 12:34. Recheck every clock before you bid.
