    I don't actually see why they need the .co.uk
    they own both versions of com

    seems like they have been getting lots of other extensions
    maybe more money than sense

    must have been a buy now listing and csc bought for them
    lucky seller

    plus looks like they(csc) handregged the 1stdibs.co.uk version in jan

    "1stdibs has raised $42 million so far through its Series B funding round. It follows the $60 million that the company raised last year from Benchmark alone in its Series A."

    With this kind of money floating around, like you say maybe it's not something they thought too much about.

    Just think ebay for the ludicrously expensive design and antiques market do you shop ebay .com or uk? That’s I’d guess why and I suspect they’d have gone higher ? There pumping ten of millions in trying to create a global brand but nice for the seller nether the less
