Domain Financing and WP.com
PremiumDomains.US is now offering financing for buyers of our premium domain names. The service is available for most domains priced above $2500.
A typical arrangement is 20% to 40% down (of the final purchase price) with the balance owed broken into equal monthly installments of either 12 months or 24 months. For ultra premium domains, a term of up to 48 months may be available.
Financing is a great option for buyers as it allows them to effectively begin utilizing a better domain name for their business while laying out a smaller, more manageable up front sum. Paying the remaining balance over 1 to 2 years leaves the buyer with a cost effective means of acquiring a good quality domain name, and better managing their monthly cash flow.
Example: A $7500 domain purchase at 20% down and 24 monthly payments on the balance due would equate to a $1500 down payment and 24 monthly payments of $250.00. For some 
buyers, this can be a good option for keeping their existing credit line free for running the business and covering other operational expenses.
Also must mention a rumor that WordPress (famous blog software developer) have acquired the two letter dotcom domain, WP.com. This domain only recently began resolving to the WordPress.com website. No word as of yet about a high dollar purchase, but you can be sure this domain (if purchased by WordPress) did not come cheap. As is often the case, a potential purchase may be private and subject to a non-disclosure agreement. I will post any information on the WP.com situation as information comes available.
Update: Indeed, Automattic Inc. (known for WordPress) purchased the WP.com domain name from Yahoo. Price still unknown.
