i.e. look at creative.co.uk - it just sold for £7000 on sedo
On the face of it it looked a good name - perhaps worth the money or a bit more - but with an overture result of 343 with the extension it looks a bargain and a very shrewd investment.
Edwin's maps.co.uk is a fantastic name and I'm sure stanford's would want that.
Warning though - overture is not always accurate - we bought a couple of domains which failed miserably (one shows overture of 206 and is producing only £10 per month - fortunately it only cost £500) wheras others have been a great success and pay back the outlay within a year. After a while, and with a larger portfolio, you get the feel for a good domain. Usually, overture is a good indication, but don't mortgage your house to buy a domain.

Exactly, meaning if you have a overture w/ext result of say 200 (Per month), you would expect to receive more than 200 uniques a month from that domain as the majority of people wouldn't type a domain into a search engine.
You and I would type it into the address bar, not to mean everyone will.

Yeah they live near me. Bet the income from Sedo is huuuuge. And they own www.ratboy.co.uk. Not fair.
I've done the overture thing on all my domains and the only one with any results is unblocking.co.uk so maybe that'll turn out to be a good buy

Sorry Atlanta - I put in 02mobiles.com not o2mobiles.com 
but check again in a week and you never know it might show something when the Sept overture figures come out. They are usually updated around the middle of the month (sometimes as early as the 10th).
