Gold is currently priced at $822 an ounce and remains a popular investment opportunity among "old school" and newer investors as well. This is a solid name for auctioning bullion, bars, coins, nuggets, and the wedding ring after that nasty divorce. Auction software is cheap enough and the key player in the auction space seems to have lost some juice, perhaps opening up some new opportunities for niche players. Not owning the plural - GoldAuctions.com - would of course, result in potential traffic loss.

The "gold" keyword also has a decent CPC reportedly between $0.51 and $1.47 with a CPD of $11.5k - $42k. With OVT just over 500/month and an 18.4M Alexa rank this doesn't seem to get a lot of natural traffic though, so development in the manner that Jeffrey described would probably be the best route.

Gold prices are higher than ever and uncertainty in the market creates a lot of opportunity to be the "go between" for the market. This is a perfect name to do that.

I would have to place the value of this name below $5,000 unless it has significant traffic.

The keywords in this one are decent. The thing that is holding them back in the combo of the words. The words are nice but they don't flow and are not a natural search term. More people want to find a Jewelry auction house or a trusted auction house like eBay.com to auction off their valuable items. This name will require TONS of SEO and branding to become a competitor in the auction world.

Recent sales that directly relate this name:

GoldsAuction.com - $300 - Afternic
ToysAuction.com - $350 - Afternic
ChopperAuction.com - $500 - NameJet
GoldStuff.com - $600 - Sedo
SellScrapGold.com - $295 - Sedo

There are also countless other Gold selling names that were under $100. As you can see the plural of "Gold" in the same format of this name has only sold for $300. Though this name is stronger i do not see it reaching over $1,500. More than likely this will be around the $1,000 range.

Something i would like to point out is that whoever decides to develop this name will need to do some strong promoting for this one. People are not just going to list their valuable items on a brand new unknown site when they can list them on eBay.com or other reputable auction houses that get WAY more exposure.

Gold continues to rise to record levels, and with it so will advertising online. With this particular domain name, you have two ways to view it.

There is the litteral sense, as in an Auction for Gold and there is a brandable way as in using the word "gold" like in the golden standard. I think using "Gold" literally makes the most sense for these keywords.

Here are some domain comps for the use of Gold, literally.

GoldScrap.com - $2,000
Gold.mobi - $4,151

Based on these, I would expect a sales price to reach the low x,xxx range. Somewhere between 2 and 3.5k.

On a side note, there are two issues with this domain to be aware of. The first, is the plural holds quite a bit of value and could cause branding issues down the road if developed. The second issue is in the way in which gold is bought and sold. It is not typically the type of thing your going to find at auction when Gold prices are set by the ounce and sold between brokers.

In development, what would make more sense is to use this domain name for Gold Jewelry, as oppose to just gold.
