Typo Jackpot? Infi.com sells for 57.5 k

[sleddogrob]

Did this lucky person buy infi.com as a typo for info.com?

If they did they sure hit the jackpot. Unless somebody knows something about infi that I dont...

Sedo is reporting it sold today for 57.5k. A quick whois shows it was sold to Infinity Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Well then I think it's not sold as a typo, but rather short for "infinity", not a bad buy for the enduser

INFI is the stock symbol for Infinity Pharma.

Oops did I goof!

I should have said the person who sold the domain (did they originally buy it as a typo). All I had was the dollar figures in my head when I made my comment.

Nonetheless a nice sale for the owner.

I suppose we shouldn't have allowed 10 NSDQ dot com ticker symbols to expire
