I presume he means Wow as in Bad.
It was sold at Domainlore last year for over £1k but if your going to split off the .uk and sell only the .co.uk you've got to expect a big hit.

Agreed, sold the .uk shortly before leaving the buyer of the .co.uk very little chance of acquiring. Shot themselves in the foot I reckon, unless they sold the .uk for a sizeable amount.

Not sold but split off.

I was surprised too, even without the .uk seems rather cheap

Different owner though, unless they are one of the same?

What can you actually use the domain for though - I can't think of anything it really suits.

Agreed. I think given the climate it's a reasonable sales price. I've been struggling to think of a usage for it. I guess for some kind of client preview area but most would use client.theirbrand.co.uk or whatever. Perhaps someone will come along in the future with a product or service called "Client" and snap it up but it'll no doubt be a long wait.

This just one of a long list of common/short words that look great on the surface but when you give it a second thought you find the potential usage options severely limited which is obviously reflected in the aftermarket price.
