How would you go about selling a .co domain name?

I think the only real way is to find an active marketplace where there are buyers (if there is one). I doubt whether the majority of buyers / domainers would touch them as a serious investment on the aftermarket, as most of the people holding .co domains are looking to sell names that they caught / registered on release at a profit, not buy them.

Unfortunately, .co, .cm, .me etc launches mostly seem to draw in people with the hype of the launch and then they die out in terms of aftermarket sales. For example, there was an astonishing amount of very strong keyword .me domains dropped on the anniversary of the launch last summer - lighting.me etc.

Reminds me of the .mobi hype too, very similar build up too....!

What's the name? I saw a .co being used in AdWords for the first time today.

Wait until there is a market for selling them or you will probably be selling yourself short (if there is going to be a market for them!)
