Another funny thing is some of these names have always been available, and now with the renewed interest in .us they are finally being regged.

That's human nature - we always want what we can't have. The same person who will not spend $5 to reg one today will gladly pay $60 tomorrow simply because they are no longer available. Some people are a half step ahead and realize they are going to be gone so they are getting them now. We've already seen the price jump 1000% on .biz and .info threes after they sold out, so there's no reason to think it won't happen here as well.

In my case, I didn't know I was allowed to.

My registrar informed me that because I do business in the US, I can.

So, I took around 15 of them.

I supply clearly drives this reseller market.

Duke was fortunate to get a nice chunk of ALL new extensions in the 3 letter category.

He has over 500 in info,biz and us.

I think he knows what he's doing! :-D

Duke has been suggesting to me for 9 months to buy more 3 letter .us.

But, I put more effort into the .info tld.

Nametower, by your report, Duke has over 650 3 ltr .us alone.
And, most of them are prime letters!!!

Plus, he has many of the prime 3 ltr .info and .biz.

I hate it when someone uses their intelligence and drive to get ahead. :-D

Over 1,500 all together in those 3 extensions and I sell them in all three TLD's to small business end users every week. I never wholesale 3-letter domains any more because there is no need to (the last time I ran a 3-letter wholesale list was back in January and Elequa bought the entire list of more than 80 names - he knows a lot that I don't know so I took a lesson from that :) ).

So they have gone ??.......That was crazy. At midnight (GMT) I decided to buy the remainder, but every batch I loaded into godaddy the majority was coming back as sold. I managed to get a few, but I defenitely didn`t get anywhere near the complete buyout. Someone else must have had the exact same idea at the exact same time........Any ideas who ?

WOW! The whole list sold in the last 100 minutes!

Thanks guys for the nearly 100 I bought in the last 24 hours. I had been making lists and acquiring very few good ones that I found. The post here motivated me. I'll throw one back to salute you guys later!
