    Are they worth more because there are so few available these days?

    It took me a few hours just to find two of them...

    UGFJ and GFJU ...

    Im thinking perhaps because they are easier used for acronyms than 5+ letters, plus some people like acronyms for their sites cuz theres less to type?

    Speculators are grabbing 4 letter domains but they only have real instrinsic value if they can be branded, make a word or are easy to remember acronyms (ie CIBC=canadian imperial bank of commerce).

    In a few years speculators will be scrambling for 7 letter domains. :)

    tobycoke, that won't happen. There will be so many combos:

    ragrahb3
    random stuff.

    but yea all 3 letter .coms are gone so now onto 4 letter...

    They are useful if they make sense. If its just leeters bearing no meaning then its not worth much.
