So, you wanted a prime domain name but missed your chance in the dot-com gold rush land grab? Now's your chance to get one.

For example, hell.com, dsl.com, hmo.com and auction.com are for sale. But their valuations--anywhere from $2 million to $10 million--may put them out of reach for some people.

Domain name seller Moniker.com is holding a live auction in Hollywood, Fla., on Oct. 27 at 1:30 p.m. ET.

Other domains on the block include: above.com, digitalcameras.com, elections.com, downloadgames.com, internetradio.com and mortgage.net. Then there's breathalyzer.com, caymanislands.com, people.net, tall.com, university.org and sexeducation.com.

The first set of premium .mobi domain names, targeted for mobile use, will also be auctioned off.
