Could someone help me put a reseller value on a double premium LL.vg? What about country abbreviations like in, uk, cn or de? I do not own any, I am speculating for purpose of future investment. Thanks in advance.

This was a great read...I see its an older thread so I will have to ask a question to understand current conditions:

Are LLL.mobi names worth registering? I have come across a three letter word in the mobi extension but I know in general this domain does have much interest.

Thanks for any feedback.

I thought I’d start this thread as a reference for short domains as to what types of domains are bought out and what types of domains are not. To be included, the following characteristics must hold:

- Domain is no longer than 5 characters in length (A character is considered a number, letter or hyphen)
- Domain type must be at least 1000 similar domains.
- Domain registration fees must be less than US$50
- Domain type must have >50% already registered or be two characters long.
- Domain types are distinguished by letter composition, NOT DEFINITION. (e.g. 4 letter .net domains with “TV” in them is not considered a type of domain as “TV” has some form of definition.)
- For arguments sake, the letter “y” is considered to be a vowel at the end of a word but a consonant at all other positions on a word.

For simplification purposes the following codes exist:

L – Letter
N – Number
C – Letter or Number (When not used in conjunction with the letter V)
C – Consonant (When used in conjunction with the letter V)
V – Vowel
P – Premium Letter (One of the following letters: A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,L,M,N,O,P,R,S,T)

I will aim to regularly update this initial post with more detail and relevant info. If you have any suggestions of domains that are bought out, potential buyouts, registration data on buyouts, links to Namepros threads relevant to a particular buyout, etc… feel welcome to mention it.

I don't know a lot on country codes and which domains are bought out and which domains have 2 character domains available or bought out. Some country codes don't have 2 character domains and I don't want to mention them.

Can we book two charters domain name ?
