World’s Largest Online Domain Name Auction – On eBay

Fernando Escovar, a Los Angeles photographer is auctioning off his domain name portfolio, reported to be valued at US$1.5 million. The portfolio allegedly contains 1500 English, Spanish, Tech, TV and geo-centric domain names.

Some of the domain names include: lasvegastowers.com, lasvegastower.com, share-holder.com, comision.com, vegasi.com, and reporttv.com.

Escovar explains “In the game Monopoly, the person with the most properties usually wins. In this virtual age, whoever owns a list of highly valued and trafficked domain names owns the internet”.

The auction will go live on eBay on June 3, 2008 with a portion of proceeds going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
