    Against the rules to register them?
    Or against the rules to sell them?

    It's not against the rules to have one... since the older registered domains can be kept, however new ones can't be registered now..

    It depends on the extension. Some allow 2 chars, some don't.

    It's not against the rules or they receive any punishment
    These are old registrations, now they are all gone (of course)
    They are rare that's why their price is high
    Some ccTLDs or other TLD like .info and .biz

    Yeah its not against any rule. Registry does not allow the registration of 2 char TLDs now but you surely can buy it from buyers.

    Um, this is the 1st I've ever heard of this! Where did you hear this?

    There are heaps of people that buy & sell 2 character domains. I don't know the source you've got if from, but this does not make sense.

    Here's a list of available 2-character numbered domains available in the .gs extention. I've got 2 of them (11 & 55). They can be registered @ iDotz.net as they allow 2 character registrations.

    Post if you register any. Reps are always appreciated :D
