    I own some nice email names like among a bunch of others, and was wondering if anyone thinks they would be worth selling or something. :D

    You could try.
    The broad reach of the web means there's bound to be some lunatic willing to pay for something that's free.

    People used to on Ebay pretty sure it's against gmail's TOS in some way.

    I really doubt such free email accounts would be worth anything, but there is no harm trying to sell them on Ebay etc.

    It might be worth a couple of bucks. Try auctioning it in ebay, you'll never know how much people might be willing to pay for it :)

    Yep, people will buy anything as long as you find a way to convince them. It is the same with the software products out there. People are paying as much as $100 for where they can find a free alternative with a lot more features (I can't give example now).

    Personally, I won't buy this kind of emails as long as I can get them for free. :D
