    It also depends on the number and what it can reference. ie: 852 is the country calling code (telephone) for Hong Kong, 646 is the area code for NYC. If you can brand a NNN with this in mind it would be worth more than a "random" number. Hong Kong...that is also why the seller referenced macau.com as a comparable.

    You can't really compare the name of a country to the country's calling code because the name of a country is a lot more recognizable than a country's calling code. It would have to be compared to something like 310.com or 646.com.

    yeah, it will all depend

    car.com
    dog.com
    cat.com

    are worth zillions ;)

    But I have seen ppl going crazy in Asia for number only domain names. I am not referring to 777.com or 666.com ;)

    HI

    The price for this domain is worth around 8k-12k unless you find an end user that really wants it.

    Thanks

    wat does it have to do w/ macau.com???
    if he insist, tell him that sex.com was sold for $14 million, so buy euhigisejyhgd9rshg4.com for $1 million.
    But most likely, it was your own misunderstanding.

    Think of it this way.....

    0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9 (ten digits)

    10^3 = All possible combinations of a 3-character, all numbers .com so there are 1,000 total... which in my opinion would make it worth more than a 3 letter .com (if you were branding it towards an area) because there are 26^3 possible 3-character, all letters .coms available so there are 17,576 XYZ.com's available... As you can see, the 3 number is decidedly more rare.

    Or...even better...you may say the 852 is completely unique. There is only one 852 out there, ONLY ONE...
    So 852.com worth Billions...like fldbbdfurefabnfhadjvnjbfdmzs.com which is unique too...
