Can you imagine someone shelling out an amount as big as $1.8 million not to buy a luxury coupe for himself…No, not even to pamper his girlfriend with diamonds, but to get the desired web domain names.
Yes, the battle for URLs took place for the URL Seniors.com at an auction that started with a bid of $300,000 and blasted through the seven-figure mark before hitting $1.8 million. The Richie-rich participants that they were, bid on as many as 218 Web domain names that aimed at minting out $10.8 million once they were sold.
