I had the chance to buy www.c.com for $3 a while back... Did i miss out on a great deal? Could i have made a profit off of reselling it?

you never had this chance

that domain... if it ever became available for sale would cost you much more than $3

C.com (or www.c.com) is reserved and does not even exist. I can tell you right now without doing any research that the name was some sort of crap IDN ..

Aw, sweetie.

If it was just a few months ago, then yes: it wasn't what you were thinking or they were trying to scam you.

What the others here aren't telling you is domains such as this: c.com, a.com, b.com were reserved and never allowed to be registered.

Okay, Mr. Pro!

Megan: Thanks for being polite about it - i get it now.

Either way, i saw it being sold, thats that.

**randomo** · 03-31-2009, 02:37 PM

You might have seen it being offered for sale (though it was most likely an IDN). People frequently attempt to sell goods that they do not, and could not possibly, own. (Pssst ... wanna buy the Brooklyn Bridge?) Caveat emptor!

**draggar** · 03-31-2009, 02:37 PM

Yes, it was one of two things:

Either it was an IDN of some sort (not the letter C on your keyboard but something that looked like a C or they were trying to sell the Brooklyn Bridge.
