The name of the new, interim prime minister of Italy, Mario Monti was registered in dot com years ago.
According to DomainTools, MarioMonti.com was registered in 2005 and has been a part of the BuyDomains portfolio ever since.
When Silvio Berlusconi stepped down and Mario Monti took over, the domain was still listed for sale on BuyDomains with a buy now price of $588.
As of today, the new owner is Rick Schwartz, who acknowledged jumping on the opportunity to buy the domain in a comment here on DomainGang.
It’s not yet clear what will Rick do with the domain name MarioMonti.com but it’s a definite act of borderline speculation on a public figure’s name.
