Most Expensive Internet Domain Name.
The Internet domain name business.com was sold by Marc Ostrofsky on Dec 1 1999 for £4.6million ($7.5million). Marc, a 38-year-old Houston media entrepreneur, bought the domain name from a London Internet service provider for $150,000 in 1996, the same year his children\'s nanny won $21 million in the Texas lottery. Ostrofsky is not only a savvy businessman but also a very thoughtful husband. When he sold the domain name www.eflowers.com for $25,000 and 50 cents on every transaction at that site he made eFlowers promise to send his wife a dozen roses each month for the rest of her life.
