This is great news for the .tv extension!
Now seller and bidder must go through the legal aspects of the transaction and we will watch for an update from Sedo. To view the final auction details, click this link.
According to the seller, at the time of sale:
1) Cash.tv carries a $5,000 renewal price;
2) Cash.tv was renewed through September of 2008; and
3) Cash.tv receives ~500 unique visitors a month.

Each name is followed by the amount bid (converted to US dollars if the native currency is not USD), the number of bids, the time remaining in the auction, whether the reserve has been met, and any unique hits if specified by Sedo. All auctions still have two or more days remaining before they close:
cash.tv--------$7,365--1--2d 45m------(reserve met)
british.tv------$1,378--11-2d 22h 42m-(reserve NOT met)--219 unique visitors per month
webb.tv-------$125----1--3d 5h 42m---(reserve met)--55 unique visitors per month
fantasias.tv---$1,378--1--4d 11h 1m---(reserve met)--515 unique visitors a month
erection.tv----$2,000--1--5d 5h 28m---(reserve met)
oral.tv---------$2,750--1--5d 5h 42m---(reserve met)
First and foremost, I would want to know whether any .tv names carry premium pricing under the Verisign pricing structure before I even considered bidding on them because renewal pricing influences a domain’s value more in the .tv extension than other extensions…
