Really interesting discussion about domain age as it relates to price.
I've run some numbers from Flippa to better understand the correlations between different attributes & final sale price. And I've found some really interesting stuff.
Domains 1-15 years old or so sell as you'd expect. After that the price starts taking off exponentially! This is indeed an enormous lagging indicator of value.
As expected, .com's are the most valuable, followed by .io's (makes sense given the high income demographics of .io buyers & sellers). Somewhat unexpectedly, .orgs & .nets are about the same, with .co's coming in last (I always dislked .co's personally)
I'll be sharing more info like this in an upcoming newsletter.

First, character length: https://www.dropbox.com/s/d5s8wpry18sg0hk/Avg%20Price%20of%20Domain%20vs%20Character%20Length.png?dl=0
As you can see, domains with character length under 10 characters sell for 3-4x what domains over 15 characters sell for.
However, this is nothing compared to age. Check this out:

Finally, I pulled some numbers on TLD:
