Is .cc or .us.com better when all else is taken?

I've made an offer on a .com site on SEDO for myself, but the sites appraised value is over $2,000, and I think the owner wants more than I would like to pay. He's not responding after over a month.

I have the option of getting the .cc version, and maybe the .us.com TLD of the domain. .cc will be only $20 a year, as opposed to $3,000. The term is generic and likely increase in value in the future, as the internet grows even more. The term gets about 150 searches a day according to Googles keyword analyzer.

Is the .cc TLD just as easily found on searches as the traditional .coms?

Should I just bite the bullet and shell out $2000-3000 for the .com and forget the .cc or .us.com?

Is .us.com any good?

Firstly ,JUST plan forget us.com
Useless to the MAX

Second
Maybe try to think of a related version of the name that is avaliable in the .com

.CC variant ok but .com variant is preferable.

Well, I already have a name similar to that generic 2-word term. On some searches with 3 keywords, I appear on the first page of Google search. My domain is that 2-word .com phrase and one other word. But nobody types the generic phrase with the other word that makes my domain, although it is a catchy 3-word phrase.

So, I'm wondering if that phrase and .cc would appear in the same position as .com if someone searched that phrase.

Thanks.

For development, there is absolutely nothing wrong with .cc as far as SEO is concerned. I don't think google places that much value on the TLD if the content is there.

us.com is a subdomain, I wouldn't base a business on that.
