I can only think of two reasons someone would buy it: to do something not allowed by the license or to distribute malware. If you have say copyright on an AGPL-licensed piece of software that a proprietary vendor wants to use/sell, maybe you have a shot at the former. I don't have any experience with this but it's an above board thing to do anyway. Otherwise, I can't think of a legitimate reason for someone to be willing to buy it for a significant sum. They can always fork for free if they just want to make improvements and distribute them. If it's important to them to take over the existing name/url/credentials it's probably to put in something that users don't want...
