There is a football (soccer) website for sale at SitePoint. The website is footballexpo.com which according to seller recieves about 500.000 monthly pageviews, and generates $500-600 in revenue.
The seller claims that it has made more than $500 revenue with adsense since it was started 20 days ago. It seems rather unusual for a website to receive that much traffic so quickly after being created. But he also tells that the traffic comes from newsnow.co.uk and lots of other uk football club sites, which seems to be correct.
I wonder how much money there are in ads on sports websites of all sorts like water skiing or basketball for that matter.
The site is for sale with a BIN of $1500.

This upcoming friday the EU domain rush will get rolling… EURid opens at 11:00 on Friday the 9th, and they expect it will take some hours to process all the pre-registrations that registrars has been accepting during the last months.
So did you forget to pre-register your desired EU domains? If you did, then you still have a chance, but if it is “popular” domains you want to register, then the race is probably already over for you. With all the pre-registrations that will be processed some of them is probably for the same domain name you’re thinking about right now - which ever it is 
At http://status.eurid.eu/ you are able to follow the stats for the .eu domain registrations, so if you’re into that, go check it out friday when the rush begins. It should update every 15 minutes, so it is going to be exiting to see how many domains will be registered. And even more exciting to see if one gets those applied for…

OnlineGames.net has been put up for sale at SitePoint. This is a very popular flash games website with many sorts of games - from sudoku games to action games. It has about 30,000 unique visitors a day. The site makes near $3,500 monthly through Adsense, YPN, Casale Media and Fastclick.
The traffic has been stable for several months according to seller, so it - as he says - should be a good investment. The starting bid is $45,000 with a BIN of $120,000. I’m not sure it is worth the BIN, but then again a website with this kind of traffic is often worth A LOT MORE than the “usual” 12 months of revenue.

There is a guitar forum called Guitars101.com currently for sale at SitePoint. It looks like a good website with plenty of activity. And the stats for the forum seems very good too with almost 30,000 threads containing about 350,000 posts. And there is 20,005 registered members.
The site is making $400-500 a month through adsense according to seller. That should be possible increase I think.
The site is for sale with a starting bid of $10,000 and a BIN at $12,000, which compared to the income seems rather high. But it is for sure that there is a lot of potential for this site.
Update: I guess someone saw the potential, since it has just sold for the BIN price.

At Dnforum there is a huge forum for sale. The forum is located at blogring.net and it is a blogging related forum mainly for xanga and myspace. With its almost 100,000 threads containing more than 1,6 million posts it is definitely a huge forum.
The traffic is also there since it gets about 5,000 uniques a day - and the seller says something about 40,000 impressions, but I’m not sure if that is ads he is talking about.
As it is stated in the thread the site is pretty slow due to the forum software that needs to be upgraded etc.
The seller is looking for bids over $9,000 and he currently has a bid at $13,000.

I just read a good post at Jensense about how to check for a Adsense ban and it was even written for website buyers: Safeguarding yourself when purchasing a site for Adsense.
She doesn’t mention the online tools available to see Adsense ads such as Google Adsense Sandbox from DigitalPoint. That’s the one I always start with - if it shows ads then everything seems fine - if it doesn’t shot ads then check again in two hours, and if it still doesn’t show ads then you should investigate further.
