Is there something odd going on here or what?

They are IDNs - copy the domain names and paste them into a browser.

Some people probably got ripped off big time.

arrh, never seen that before Jeff.

Bloody hell, glad I didn't see it or I would have been caught by it. Surprised they were allowed on sedo to be honest as it's very misleading.

Can't see any mention of those being IDNs on the closed auction pages, but Sedo does make it clear (in my opinion) on running auctions.

E.g. http://www.sedo.co.uk/auction/auction_detail.php?auction_id=125252

So those bidding on the auction would have seen it, I guess fair enough that is pretty clear if they were like that example. Well you learn somehting everyday, never even seen them IDN's before.
