No you are exactly right. These domain names became available a few months back and now some one is scooping them up to squat on them and try and make a profit selling them to SL residents.

Its freaking despicable, we are a community, and it is disgusting to steal all those names for exploitation of the community, where people may have a legitimate use for them, like to display their in-world store products on or use as a information web-site for their products. But hey all is fair in fun and profiteering, right?

And wtf is with the 'prices vary' part. Why the hell do prices vary? Does it depend on whether or not the seller knows what you want to do with them and thinks he can squeeze more blood of the turnip or what? GREED.

I hope who ever scooped up those domains rots with them.
