    Why would anybody buy a website for that much money?

    It was probably a hype for the Y2K problem, (which was not a problem).. Read more info here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y2K

    well, it was 10 million on ebay.
    too many crazy sellers daydreaming on ebay everyday.
    i don't sincerely think the buyer ever paid.

    SportTV.com sold only for $99,000. If I had this domain I would have hold it for millions.

    What I don't understand and doubt is if I own a good domain and goto afternic,sedo or any other agency, will I find these high paying buyers again,who are paying millions for just domain name?

    That's a million, oh no, billion dollar question! If I know all that, I would have been richer than 10 Bill Gates combined.

    OK i assume the guy bought vodka was drunk but year2000.com ?

    OK seriously there is no way year2000.com to get close to $500 or maybe the buyer (let's call him buyer) came from space

    Well I would understand y2k.com possibly getting this much but not a stupid domain like that - reg fee!
