That some price for a non-generic mate, well done. Wasn't the double 'mm' version taken over by BT some years ago?

Was more of a surprise really, registered it in 94 I think, had to pay £500 a year then. Kept getting pestered by a luxembourg company to buy it and ignored them, and by doing this, not knowingly, the offer kept going up.. You can check the website to see they are a very big corporate.

They've now opened a uk office and are chasing transcom.co.uk , i think its worth the same to them, well see what happens, still have the .net, .biz, .tv

BT have registered a trademark against the mm version, but way after we registered it, also, in the states, transcom is military as far as Im aware, so even the others may be worth a fortune.

Can only wait and see !

Cheers

Bill

Welcome Bill

Wow, £500 a year, thats how much it was, I always think what if but in 94 that would made sure I starved.

transcom.ws is still available, I'd pick it up but already done my daily domain purchase.

Kind Regards
Leon
