XYZ 很荣幸的宣布我们在三月16号到三月31号会跟西部数码第二次合作一期精品域名拍卖。超过150个.xyz域名会在没有储备拍卖。很多这些域名都是从精品里挑选出来的，因为为了这次拍卖，我们特地保留了这些域名把它们从精品里拿出来，这样拍卖赢家续费时只需付普通续费价不需担心溢价!
在拍卖的域名里，会有6个二数，7个二字母，10个三数，12个三字母，12个四数，8个四字母，和五个重复字母（例如：xxxxx.xyz & bbb.xyz) – 都没有储备。这代表这些领域将出售给出价最高的人，不管最后的价格是什么！
最后的拍卖会献给最精品的1.xyz. 我们会在这个域名上放个合理的储备，但我们预计这一领域的销售会超过所订的储备。每天拍卖的指南，规则，和完整清单，可以在这里看到。
在去年，我们也成功与西数合作了一期拍卖。当时，9.xyz售价为1,135,000元，这也是最高纪录的新顶级域名历史销售。你可以在下看到一个完整出售的域名清单。因为这些领域是被拍走的，买家只支付我们普通续费价！

XYZ 团队
XYZ is proud to announce that we have partnered with West.cn for a second time to host an exclusive .xyz premium name auction between March 16 – March 31. Over 150 .xyz domains will be auctioned off at no reserve. Many of these domains have never been registered before, since they were originally variably priced premium names, which renewed for a premium fee. However, we have removed these domains from our variably priced premium list so that the winners of these domains will only be responsible for standard renewal fees!
Among the domains being offered, the auction will feature six 2-number, seven 2-letter, ten 3-number, twelve 3-letter, twelve 4-number, eight 4-letter, and five repeating-characters (i.e. xxxxx.xyz & bbb.xyz) – all at no reserve. That means that these domains will sell to the highest bidder, no matter that final price is!
The final domain auction will be for the highly-coveted 1.xyz. With a very reasonable price set, we expect this domain to sell for significantly more than the reserve. Guidelines, rules, and a complete list of domains offered for auction each day can be found here.
The exclusive March auction with West.cn follows our extremely successful auction with them in December 2015. At that time, 9.xyz sold for 1,135,000 RMB, making it one of the highest reported sales in history of a new domain name. You can see a complete list of domains sold in that auction below. Because these domains were sold in auction, the buyers only pay our standard renewal rate for these domains!
| 9.xyz | 1,135,000 RMB |
| 22.xyz | 172,000 RMB |
| 884.xyz | 4,700 RMB |
| yy.xyz | 250,000 RMB |
| zz.xyz | 114,000 RMB |
| 6n.xyz | 22,500 RMB |
| pz.xyz | 54,000 RMB |
| 118.xyz | 50,000 RMB |
| yyy.xyz | 40,000 RMB |
| 189.xyz | 22,500 RMB |
| zzz.xyz | 39,000 RMB |
| xxx.xyz | 43,000 RMB |
| 987.xyz | 26,500 RMB |
XYZ continues to focus on China as one of its most important markets, and we expect adoption to skyrocket after we receive accreditation later this year. As the popularity of .xyz continues to grow, we expect the great domains we’ve included in the West.cn auction to receive a lot of attention from domain investors all over the world.
We are also considering direct sales of variably priced domains. Packages begin at $500,000 USD. Serious offers may be submitted to [email protected].
Happy bidding and good luck!
