These 3-character letter/number combos drop virtually every day and can be picked up for an $8 reg fee. So they would not be worth any more that that. Bob just sold a group of 24 of them on Ebay and got an average of just over $5 each on them (and that is High for Ebay!).

A quite nice combination. My first guess was $250-$500. If you look at 3 letter domain auctions like

http://auctions.beyonddomains.com/

there are some in this range.

So True. I used to get $300 - $500 each for them. Now the are a dime per dozen unless they have a special meaning.

And yes, I got $125 for 24 of them on eBay... $5 each (less if you count the PayPal fee). I was pretty happy with that.

You are missing one important point. Yes they have some LISTED in that range, but they have ZERO bids.

Also there is a big difference between 3-letter .coms and 3-character .coms. Three letters are good, a combination of letters and numbers like this normally is not.

Although pretty much usesless now (it actually redirects to a hosting site) does anyone know, out of interest, what y2k.com sold for before 2000?
