Domain vulture eBaying Alexander McQueen-related domain for half a mil

A domain reseller is trying to pawn off alexandermcqueenfashions.com on ebay for a starting bid of $500,000. Why would anyone pay half a mil for that unwieldy 14-character albatross of a domain? "[F]or business, or for memories of one of the greatest fashion designer's of his generation!! An easy to remember domain name, with huge profit potential!!" To you, eBay Seller Name fashionista-queen(434), I have only this to say: goodluckwiththatdude.com. (thanks, Susannah)
