Got an extra 1.2million laying around?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...093965525&rd=1
Just $1,200,000.00, a bargain...
Was browing around to see if there were any worthwhile quick buys. Came upon this, thought it was funny.
Mind you, I've never bought a domain on eBay, but in the off chance theres a cool domain there I"d buy it.

those domains themselves aren't inherently valuable in my mind unless they still got tons of traffic... and by tons... i mean it better be in the top 100 on alexa to warrent such a price and make people even think about it.
there are much better ways to spend 1.2 mil if you're buying domains.Kevin Ohashi - Founder of ReviewSignal.com - Honest Web Hosting Reviews

Its no where near worth that much that domain would be worth $10'000 the most.... Only a crazy person would pay that amount.

Sorri whats the history behind this domain such that it generate 8 figures? Looks quite a common name. Any particular reason why?I feel business.com is obvious but this not very obvious

,Yea the problem is someone will use your ebay account your , feedback rating to sell something and then he will get the money to his account not yours , and then you will be in troubles with eBay and the buyer .. While you did nothing

8 figure revenue since 1996?
Please!!! Are they counting the digits to the right of the decimal?
$1,500.1200
Any site that has $1.95 monthly hosting I don't hink has ever had 10's of millions of dollars of revenue. I don't care if they have been open since 1776.

Plus I see this domain being created in 1998, So I don't know where 1996 came from.
Creation date: 23 Sep 1998
