Sedo may have another multi-million dollar sale on its hands, if it can sell the domain name gambling.com on behalf of Media Corp., one of the UK’s leading companies in internet media, focused on website publishing and online advertising.

Why Sedo?

Steven Stradbrooke, a writer for Calvin Ayre.com says: ’Media Corp claims to have received multiple inquiries as to the domain’s availability, including ‘a number of very significant indicative offers’, but the company’s Board thinks public auction is the way to go.’

Sedo has already brokered the sales of several six-figure, seven-figure and even eight-figure domain names in 2010. And the company brokered the deal that led to the biggest domain sale in 2010 (and of all-time) with the sale of Sex.com for $13 million.

Could Gambling.com be a potential acquisition target for Billionaire Calvin Ayre?

In terms of people who understand the power of a great domain name and who are willing to shell out the cash, it would be no surprise to see Calvin Ayre (who said acquiring Slots.com for $5.5MM was one of the best deals he’s ever made) buy it up while he can.
