Why was everyone after that particular name? I can see it's worth money, only because of the £1000 offer above, apart from that I would have no idea it was worth anything

No mate, never heard of that currency. Ahhh, so it's to do with branding, I was thinking you would need to sell a hell of a lot of sweets to get the cost of the domain back

Many words like that have hidden value, I took a few punts on 'brandable' names and most of the 'so-called' brandable .com like cheapcd4u2buy are trash but jellybeans design/photography/pr/office staff/employment agency/nursery/party clowns etc all work nicely

Yeah, that's the first thing I always do, all I see is stuff about the sweets called jelly beans, were you referring to something else?

"Jelly beans" are a national institution in the USA. Like "fruit gums" or liquorice allsorts" here. Maybe I'm too old as I don't buy such stuff, but are "jelly beans" popular here now? Whatever the case, the domain is a definite prospect for "Jelly Belly". Or vice versa as you read it.

Jelly beans are huge in the UK and have a massive following. We had them as a table snack in our wedding ha ha !!
Jelly Belly jelly beans - Menu 50 different flavours ! if you haven't tried them yet, I suggest you find a stockist near you : Jelly Belly jelly beans - Stockists and try some
Ironically enough, woolworths made jelly belly famous in the UK as they used to do pick and mix of just them !
Plus jelly beans have a massive following in little vending machines for charity too : The Jelly Bean Campaign
Also these are the next biggest supplier in the uk : http://www.jellybeanfactory.com/
Huge market tbh and I personally love the name

Case of "shoulda coulda woulda wanna" perhaps.The one crucial fact is will they care much for jellybeans.co.uk given that they don't own jellybeans.com either? They own jellybelly.com (their US site) and also own jellybelly.co.uk (it looks like they acquired it in August last year; probably from a "domainer") but it is still resolving to PPC! They seem to be using jellybelly-uk.com for their UK site still. This reminds me of QVC, who use qvcuk.com despite subsequently acquiring qvc.co.uk and refuse to rebrand with the latter. I once emailed them to ask why but they didn't reply!
Given that Jelly Belly don't own jellybeans.com, and don't even resolve jellybelly.co.uk properly, I'd be surprised if they cared too much for jellybeans.co.uk.
All in my humble opinion of course!
One of my favourite Jelly Sweets!! AHEM
