I would pay about 15$ and two bowls of ramen.

But this is not the price resellers are asking for...

I don't get why people pay $7mil for a domain and abandon the website later. Check beer.com, it doesn't work at all.

They'll sell it to someone else for more.

Not what I would pay, but from what I've observed 4 letter words usually go anywhere from 50k-1mil+.

I would pay nothing. A nefarious advertiser would probably pay above $100k.
