Personally I feel it to be a risky investment in these kind of names imo.

 

[newshunter]

it seems to be quite a few websites that use the 888 in their domains

It's the Chinese which like 888 or 88 in their domain names. So better put them up for sale on a Chinese website.

 

[newshunter]

the 888 number also seems to be a popular for websites related to gambling; casinos, betting, slots, poker etc

I have been studying the importance of Chinese numbers... http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numbers_in_Chinese_culture

In china anything with as much "8" in it as possible will sell for ridiculous amounts of money. Car license plated with 888 go for xxx.xxx$

It also means good fortune in Chinese culture.

"8" is also known as "ba" which is closely related to "fa" which is to prosper. That is why you see a ton of "88" or "888" or "8888" in Chinese related things, such as red packets and such.

Casinos are actually looking for "777" - not "888".
