Supply and demand. Many collectors. The dot CC's are hot and getting hotter. They are buying them up fast. When the best are taken the price goes up. I have a few 2 characters left (8). One gets 4000 to 5000 uniques every month, 1% click through rate. I have no idea what they are looking for or who is doing it. My parking company does not provide the info. I agree with the above statement. They need to lower the price for the CCTLD to really take off.
