    Today i found two interesting names

    One is a .net(available) name of a .com priced at 10,000USD, both org and .net extentions of the singular form is also available.

    Second one is a typo
    original name has two words of about 12 words, and has been sold for 40,000$ !
    typo is like exchanging 'i' and 'e' in foreign.

    thinking of registering these two, your thoughts please? Thanks in advance.

    If the outlay is only $2-$3 then you should at lease give it a shot and who knows you may see some financial reewards from them.

    Yes just go ahead if the domain can generate you income.
    But typo domain is only good for parking.

    I find that most domains, even good typos of 1-word keywords, never give good traffic or clicks. It's worth a try, I guess. I have wasted hundreds of dollars trying out domains over the years.
