So Yahoo sold off a bunch of generic names from their portfolio just a couple of months ago, which included AV.com (used to be the Alta Vista search engine, now a part of Yahoo). AV.com ended up on Sedo, and their broker said their highest offer just before Christmas was 350K. A couple of weeks later it's registered at MarkMonitor and obviously owned by Yahoo again. What the heck happened there?

AV.com goes back to Yahoo?

Maybe they didn't get enough to let it go.
