Never buy high traffic domain from digitalpoint

Interview Question | Freelance Programmer
Earn Money | Google Group | Yahoo Group

I just had a bitter experience in buying one of the high traffic domain cheapseoservices.com parked at sedo
I checked at sedo it is receiving 10000 uniques per month, the moment it was transfered to my account, I redirected to my web site and started tracking how many visitors it is getting per day, any guess ?

I am getting maximum 1 visitors per day!! (from 300 uniques per day to 1 visitor per day, is this not a miracle ? Lost few hundred bucks , does not look like the domain can recover even a dollar in next two years
So buy only developed domain, never pay more than $25 for buying a parked domain even though someone claims it is getting thousands of hits, who knows where from the domain owner is generating traffic.
