3 letter .NET outbidding 3 letter .com at SNAP???


What's with the new trend? Virtually EVERY 3 letter dot net is selling for 3 - 5 times the 3 letter dot coms today?!!??!!

What gives? Some new trend?

well if the average 3 letter .com is selling for say $2500 ... you're saying 3 letter .nets are selling for $7,500-12,500?

Well... I should say that the BIDS are 3 - 5 times that of the .coms right now... probably will change as the auctions close.

Just a weird timing thing perhaps. I don't know. OR maybe someone is thinking thei are getting a dot com instead of the dot nets.

It's no particular one... just the bulk of the 3 letters being auctioned right now. Perhaps a dozen or so.

Still alot of time left. Odds are, the dot commers are sandbagging and the dot netters are being agressive for the time being.

Just looks odd, that's all.

Yeah... the 3 letter dot coms are turning. For a while there, it looked REALLY weird that most of the NETs were outbidding the COMs.

I think this happens because of different bidding styles there.

We will see the result when the auctions end.
