seems like a fair price

but the concept of the new owners looks still a little misterious

Whichever it is, I'm sure it wipes the floor with running a shitty PPC search engine.

No, since it was developed already.

Many of the larger non-developed domain sales are between private parties and the selling prices are kept confidential.

These were the biggest publicly disclosed sales last year over $500K:

Fish.com $1,020,000
Bills.com $964,500
Earth.com $800,000
Website.com $750,000
Property.com $750,000
Refinance.com $706,850
Local.com $700,000
VIP.com $600,000
Annuity.com $600,000

Business.com at $8.5 Mil holds the record as far as I know for top sale of an undeveloped domain.
