Fund.com sold a few days ago for US $9,999,950 in an all-cash transaction Clek Media announced. Clek Media also brokered the sale. The buyer is Fund.com Inc., a New York firm previously named Meade Technologies Inc. To date the buyer has revealed their plans for the domain mostly in filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

This is by far the largest domain name sale of 2008, but is dwarfed by last year’s sale of business.com for $345 million. It is also the highest ever reported cash-only sale, beating porn.com ($9.5m) and sex.com whose exact price has not been reported.

Wow, I could see the former owner of Fund.com, just to make people mad, say 'YOU HAVE TO PAY ME IN FULL WITH QUARTERS!' and see a few hundred dump trucks roll up and drop quarters everywhere - I'd hate to be the guy to clean up that mess.

But seriously, I've never heard of such a big transaction by hand, nothing of $100,000, and we're talking about $1M here! It must have been scary and hard to keep the meeting place for this to happen kept under wraps. But that blows my mind, $1M for a 4L.com... Amazing!

HAHA! right on.

Thats crazy, why cash? I would expect gangs showing up and snipers, i am genuinely surprised no one tried to intercept it!
