The search engines generally don't differentiate ranking based on extension, except perhaps locally, e.g. .co.uk might score higher in UK. That is just speculation.

.coms demand a higher price because they are more well-known in user's minds and because .com is pretty much the only domain that gets free type-in traffic.

If you're buying the domain for speculation, go for .coms. If you're buying a domain to develop it into a worthwhile site, then go for .net and save your money.
