7. NH2.com sold for $15,000

The company describes themselves as “We predict, invent and commercialise advanced materials through the identification and manipulation of compounds at the atomic scale.” It appears they used to be known as Nanoholdings, but rebranded to a shorter name. I like to see these CCC.com domains developed.
