A blockbuster .net sale - the year's biggest non .com gTLD sale reported to date - claimed the top spot on this week's all extension Top 20 Domain Sales Chart. Frank Schilling's DomainNameSales.com did the honors with CDN.net at an astounding $185,000 - more than triple the amount paid for the previous 2012 leader in this category (DIY.org at $60,000).
The runner up position went to another six-figure 3-letter domain - SOL.com, sold at Sedo.com for $127,400. We learned about yet another three-letter .com purchased by Danish businessman Marcus Kocak for $150,000 in a private transaction, however that one was made under a non-disclosure agreement. In addition, DomainNameSales had another six-figure .com sale this week that they could not release due to an NDA.
That left the #3 position open for the week's biggest ccTLD sale, Online-Casinos.de at €65,000 ($84,500) via Sedo. Just last week Sedo sold the un-hyphenated version of that domain for the same price.

Sedo went on to sweep 15 of the 23 chart entries (the extra positions resulted from a four-way tie for the final spot). Their roster included three of the four non .com gTLDs on the elite list, including #9 (tie) Surgeon.org at $19,000. They also rang up all three country code sales on the Big Board with #11 TalkFusion.de ($18,850) and #12 Life.me ($17,450) Joining Online-Casinos.de in the ccTLD camp.
DomainNameSales also had another solid week with five charted sales including three of the first six. Their group included #4 Deng.com at $65,000 and #6 PrivatKredit.com at $35,000.
That left just three openings and the AfternicDLS took every one of those with a power trio led by #8 GetMoneyFast.com at $19,850.
