From Sedo's frontpage.

Looking at the website I see they have branded it as eGo.com. Didn't really think of that. :) iGo.com would definitely be better, but then again it wouldn't be a 1-word LLL.com.

It's definitely worth $75k, but in these days I'd like to call this a "very nice sale", considering that the word "Ego" alone doesn't have very many uses (it's so generic it has to be branded IMHO).

I think a good sale for the seller and the buyer.

I agree - anything outside the psychology circle would need to be branded.

An online Vacation site could prove to be very successful along with discount fares. Short and memorable. A site I often look at is GoToday for some great travel deals.

In short time, I think this will prove to be a very well $75K spent by the buyer.

fair price.I'd rather do something with from the ego v. consciousness realm, but e<b>GO</b> is super brandable

There's no doubt about it, but if this is a domainer-to-domainer sale, then I believe it's a very good one, which proves the value of high quality 3-letter .coms.

Branding-wise, using the word 'Go', I believe iGo is a lot better though. 'eGo' doesn't sound that good by far.

if they were to brand for e go vehicles that run on electricity, it makes $75k look cheap

a few sales gets that roi back quickly

but it's easy to judge after the fact, especially if it wasn't your domain. :)

Nice sale. Would be a smart investment to get the .US extension as well!

Great name, slight negative connotation but once its branded and well known should be a hit.

A great sale and a great domain.
I hope the buyer is an enduser.
