I was curious about domains and looked for something. The domain was available, but it cost over $1,000,000

What would happen if I clicked “add to cart” and tried to buy it if…

  • I couldn’t afford it
  • I could afford it

Does someone reach out since it’s a big sale? How do they confirm I have the money? Who does the money go to?

Assuming I don’t have the money, at what point would I get blocked? I assume they don’t just process giant purchases the same way as $10 ones

    First they would make sure to know who you are.

    Then the deal breaks, you don’t get your domain, and you owe them a nice amount for damages. That won’t go away. They would come after you and strip you of everything you have, probably for years to come.
