David Fairley,chairman of websiteproperties, announced that，Chocolate.com has been sold by auction for USD 6,000,000 what about the price of chinese "qiaokeli.com" ?
Firstly let me point out to anyone reading this thread that qiaokeli translates to chocolate in Chinese. Secondly i think that the domain should carry a fair amount of interest from Chinese chocolate manufactures (if there are any) but it would be hard to put a price on the domain as a domain is worth what you can get for it.
I guess it would depend on how the takeup of internationalized URLs goes over time. If Chinese people become used to typing in domains in hanzi then qiaokeli.com might not be as valuable as it seems. If - as Chinese e-commerce develops - users and businesses stick to prefering pinyin domain names then qiaokeli could become extremely valuable. More so than chocolate.com.
