That business.com is just a horrible search page. Did someone really pay that to put a site like that one there?! Is it just me, or are those expensive names not that great anyway??

Default Possible Most Expensive Domain names

Those ones are just the ones that have had a buyer, I suspect that there are more expensive domains, but no ones stumped up the cash for them.
I know that the owner of Design.com asked for offers and still wasn't satisfied!!

Default Just Investments

I suspect that names like these are traded as investments so the actual content of the site is meaningless. Perceived value is all.

Why would anyone even _think_ of considering to buy those domains.


They would just buy a same name with another tld,

That amout is huge !!
