3 Letter .co.uk
Why the fuss? Are they really that sought after? Do they all go for £500+ or are there some letters that bring that price crashing down?

Anyone care to throw their hat into the ring and let me know what they had and what it sold for?

3 letter names are the GOLD BARS of domaining.

Whilst you may not make a fortune on every one - what ever you buy, will always keep it's value & make you nice return.

There are 100's of buyers out there, I've sold well over 200 this year.

You can shift LLL.co.uk's all day long especially if they have traffic!

200 F*&k.

It's like anything, the good ones yes big money, but who's going to use xfy.co.uk for example? surely thats worth nothing?

When you search Google for xfy...

xfy - Google Search

There are almost 1 million results.

Maybe every every 3 letter combination is useful to someone!

Are we talking LLL's here?

How did you manage to obtain 200. Were they all from drop catching or did you pay more than reg fee. I've only managed to catch one LLL so far.
