.biz 3L .Biz for $818, really???

[Smsmasa]

Hi guys,

I just found adx.biz and jaa.biz are available to register. Guess what? The registrar asking $818 for each of them!!!

Just 3 months ago I got similar ones for about $2!!!

Isn't it funny? Why did this price changed like this? Any idea?

Thank you
Sam

All LLL.biz are "registry premium" now.

yes there is a whole thread abotu this..
looks like biz decided to imitate .co
except nobody wants biz
and co was and still is doing good
so maybe it was last resort desperation move from biz as they saw their tld and profits freefall

it won't work.
hardly anyone was registering expired 3l.biz for long time
now for 100$ .. well.. its basically a dead end I guess.

maybe I'll keep one 3l.biz as souvenir and renew it at regular price..
