    true

    yes, sold by me via sedo auction after intial bids took it to around £3k

    also sold kos.co.uk for 15k

    better than all those is spainholidays.co.uk currently at sedo auction with starting bid of £4k....this will be very interesting

    euro

    yep, the euro is very strong and can buy out us brits who are now relatively weak.....I suspect europeans will buy up more of these types of names

    spainholidays.co.uk is a very big search term and profitable

    I'm going to Cape Verde on the 27th, so was tempted by this name at around £4-5k. Too bad it rose so much ;) I hope it turns out to be a nice destination.

    driven by news

    I think the sale was driven by news....cape verde is due to be developed but will never exceed spain.....searches for spain holidays will exceed most if not all european holiday destinations

    Personally, i think my current sedo auction of spainholidays.co.uk is looking very very cheap at the opening bid of £4k should sell in excess of kos.co.uk i.e. £15k but you never know...keep watching the sedo auction and we will see!!!

    CapeVerde.com is only $30,000 over at domainmarket.com now- I'm sure it was $70,000 only a week ago. I guess Cape Verde isn't really that popular a destination outside of Europe.
