− | In November, 2011, it was announced by [[Michael Berkens]] that his site, [[MostWantedDomains.com]], had succesfully brokered the sale of the domain, "meet.me" for a record $450,000. The domain was part of a portfolio that was acquired at an earlier [[T.R.A.F.F.I.C]] conference by Mr. Berkens, [[Rick Schwartz]], and Ammar Kubba. Other domains in this portfolio include date.me, love.me, and marry.me. Michael Berkens noted that by selling the domain for a record amount in the [[.me]] namespace, he effectively raised the price of the rest of their joint-owned .me domains.<ref>[http://www.thedomains.com/2011/11/10/mostwanteddomains-com-brokers-the-sale-of-meet-me-for-a-world-record-price-of-450000/ MostWantedDomains.com Brokers the Sale of Mee.me, TheDomains.com]</ref> | + | In November 2011, it was announced by [[Michael Berkens]] that his site, [[MostWantedDomains.com]], had successfully brokered the sale of the domain, "meet.me" for a record $450,000.
