haveayak.com (which received 33 competitive bids up and over $1000 at GoDaddy recently)
waffleporn.info (possibly available to register today)
incrediblefantasticdomainsforsalebyustoyou.org
ewasteforum.net (which may still be available on DNForum now!)


... Can't tell the truth. Who knows, I might want to buy my top 5 tomorrow.
 
Sex
Loans
Money
Cars
TheThingsICanRememberFromThisDay1985Til3-10-2012.com

It's keyword relevant.
 
You only need to go back as far as the late 90s to have picked up some very good .com's.

For example MidgetPorn.com

:)
 
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, Man! Why think small? Why live in the past? It's GiantPorn.com that's gonna be huge now. Pornography as filmed from the perspective of a very tiny insect. Pubic hairs like tree trunks!

I've detracted from the tenor of this thread too much. So I'll give my 5:

Book.com
Laptop.com
Hotel.com
And their plurals
 
Books
RealEstate
Loan
CreditCard
Cars
Lawyers
Attorneys
CordBlood ;)
Shop
Auctions
Deals
Coupons

There are many many more :)
 
I would like to go back to 2003 and I would register all available ccc.com's :)
 
insurance.com
commodities.com
stockmarket.com
hotels.com
realestate.com

plus the most obvious one.
 
The problem with going back to 1985 is that you'd have to wait a while before the internet got going. You'd have to also play the stock market and bet on sports games where you know the outcome in the meantime.

Could a person even reg a domain back in 1985?

Some good choices would be single and double letter/number domains. Like 88.com 24.com US.com
 
google.com
yahoo.com
apple.com
facebook.com
insurance.com

:) you forgot microsoft.com

But seriously, the domains you mention is worth what it is today, because of the business behind them today.

If they have chosen loohoo, nahoo, fanboy and socialbook, they would be as succesful as they are today. If it wasn't for the business behind them, the only domains worth owning between the ones you mentioned would be apple and insurance. imo
