Sedo's data being used to undermine value perception:

"Previously owned by a domain trader, republic.com cost well above the average median price for a domain name of £1,223 "

Not directly Sedos fault, but if they indicated most stuff they sell is crap it might give a context

 

[domainseller200]

“The .co.uk domain sales have seen an 11 per cent Q2 to Q4 rise in number of sales and a 36 per cent rise year-on-year. The highest value public sale in the UK market alone was career.co.uk at £17,510.”

That is also bollocks too ! That is using ONLY Sedo data ! Look at how many other names sold for much more than this outside of Sedo and in public - beds.co.uk for £80k for example - very misleasing by not stating 'Sedo Sales'
