Wow it is a superior sale. A four char domain with a nice finance related generic keyword especially on a niche subject is quite difficult to acquire. I feel that the guy sold this domain rights for 10 M bucks is quite a lucky fellow. This domain was registered at end of 1994. I personally feel that Rennick has acquired this e property for his business expansion process. At present the site deals about investment on shares and commodities trade, including investments on mutual fund. Especially as a ” Professional Domainer " with portfolio at : http://www.collisiondomains.com I feel all typos of fund.com / two word generics of fund & finance related domains + the same domain in all other extension will have a good demand. Probably it will grow as a sky rocket in future as a right domain in right hand has a value like a gold mine. Nice Sale - Wow i feel all domainers will be happy as one of our commumity member sold his e property for 8 figures. I am very very happy with this sale. when i refered Namebio.com i saw fund.info was sold for 15000 bucks "Nice Sale"

It is now limited to 10,000 domains or 3% of registration for registrars, also a fee is included by ICANN. Also from now onwards Google wont give adsense for domains to temporary Domains.
