Granted the 4.cn site is selling ascii dot cn's.....and ascii dot com.cn's

I looked for IDN's....I did not see them posted in Chinese or English versions.
are IDN's at a sister site of this firm ?

With the large inventory of LLL and LLLL's there, is there a possibility that
an end user/rep for the LLLL and an end user for the Chinese word/ascii were bidding against each other here ???

the 15K should be encouraging to the LLLL crowd.....
many are crying over x,xxx and xx,xxx purchases .....and low xxxx and xxx sales now.

I could see a point if Orange telecom from the EU wanted the name....
very interesting ...
thanks Bill for posting it...

This does not constitute LLLL domain... it is an actual Chinese pinyin name...

If it is a pinyin name, looks like the value of chinese idns has just increased with this sale.

I count 4 letters, so it constitutes a 4 letter domain, even though of course the value is not because it is 4 letter. Its the fact the domain actually makes sense lol.

It's an LLLL and a Pinyan name. In this case it's the Pinyan name that is worth $15k to someone. I notice one of our members owns the IDN "orange.com" in Chinese. Congrats Chris, looks like your stock has risen. :)
