.Me Domains Auction Grosses over US$1Million

I came and checked back with the .me domain auctions today and I'm quite bit in awe as to how ridiculously high the bids have gone since July 21 not even a full month so far. Most ridiculous is toyota.me sold for just over US$90K. I seriously doubt that the Brazilian who bought the domain can keep it for very long though. As soon as Toyota wants that domain, he can be dragged into a prolonged legal battle which will see himself the loser in the end. I'd say he's lucky if he gets the $90K back. Nevertheless, the .me domain auction I should has been a resounding success proven by the total worth of the most sought after .me domains both active and sold. The domains that reached the 4 figure range (both in the active auction and recently sold) have grossed $567,120 while those that reached 5 figures reached $951,822. This puts the total revenue from these domains to reach over $1 million dollars easy.

Some of the other .me domain bidders that might have gone a little over board with wanting theirs are the one who won these domains. Please note that I write this because other than the cool message it brings, I see no commercial value to these dot me domains.

only.me - sold for $33,405 ( then what?)
aweso.me - sold for $24,189 ( I'm tired of this already!)
volu.me - sold for $10,605
rape.me - sold for $12,015 ( sounds very creepy )

Same thing for these dot me domains that are is active in the auctions:

youand.me - currently high bid $3,566
inco.me - currently high bid $1,545 (as good as this sounds, I don't the search engines will recognize)
ani.me - currently high bid $8,020

On the positive side, here's a few .me domains in the auctions I thought should be worthy of high bids because of its commercial value or message.

verify.me
tip.me
purchase.me ( the long version of buy.me)
insure.me

As always, verb-related .me domains rule! While .me domain hacks are slowly losing steam.
