"Pizza.com" Bid a High Price of 2,600,000 US Dollars

(The following information provided by Beijing Anwins Network Service Co., Ltd) The auction of the domain name "pizza.com" has began in March 27th via the internet. The first bid is 100 US Dollars.

It is reported that in April 7th an American man sold "pizza.com" to an anonymous bidder at 2,600,000 US dollars(about 18,250,000 RMB).

The former owner of "pizza.com" is the 43-year old man Chris Clark. He applied " pizza.com"in 1994,while just paid 20 US dollars for it per year. He said that this domain name had been auctioned for one week in the internet before it was purchased.

Clark bought this domain name at 20 US dollars. Then he changed it into a pizza delivery directory. According to Clark, it has brought him a certain profit in the past few years.

Although Clark only paid little sum of money for "pizza.com" every year, he decided to sell it when he heard someone purchased the domain name "vodka.com" at 3,000,000 US dollars.

"I thought that why not have a try? If someone was willing to buy vodka.com at 3,000,000 US dollars, then it is possible that some people will be interested in 'pizza.com'", Clark said.

Clark was regretful that he haven't purchased more domain names in 1994.

He set about to auction "pizza.com" via internet in March 27th, with the first bid of 100 US dollars.

This is a great success story.

There are a lot of people that wish they even registered one domain in 1994. I certainly wish I did!

Its sad to know how oblivious so many of us were to the unlimited potential of domain names - way back in the 90's. One can only deram of the possibilities - and what could have been.
But then again - there are domain names out there this very minute that will also be worth millions of dollars some day. And this is what we all must focus on - now that we are aware of the possibilities.

The Best of Luck to All of Us.
