question Weird price gaps in .io 4N ranges today. Floor sweep or am I being dumb?

[mrpumpkin]

I’ve been scanning the 4 number 777 and 888.io ranges all morning and the pricing makes zero sense.

Most triple 8s like 1888.io and 5888.io are being held for $5k to $10k now, but then you find a few stragglers in the hundreds or low $1k range

Look at the 7778.io vs 7777.io gap one is $8,000 and the other is $495? And 8882.io is listed for under $2k while the rest of the 888 series is $10k?

It feels like a few big portfolios are mid sweep and haven't found the last few 'cheap' patterns yet

I'm half tempted to snag the $500-$1800 ones just to flip them to the $10k guys, but I can't tell if the $10k floor is actually real or just a pipe dream

What do you guys think? Is $500 for a 777-8 pattern a steal or am I just falling for the $10k anchor price?

Your basing value on peoples asking price?
And you think the 10k people arent aware or care about the $788 domains?
I thought number domains went out of style with bell bottom pants and Andre Michelle pinstripe jeans
Taking a punt at $800 a pop hoping a domainer will pay more later than what a name is available for now
Dont add up to me
I’d be.scanning recent sales to sea whats sailing

My favourite genre of post is "here's my theory about why this domain is a fantastic deal, can you share your thoughts but please don't buy it out from under me wink wink".

@mrpumpkin there is no such thing as "sweeping the floor" outside of the ridiculous world of crypto. Just disclose that 7778.io is your domain and try to sell it honestly

Lmao I bought 3 after I posted this. One for what Im working on and then two more to flip.

Your points are pretty dead tbh, I’m not just looking at one guys delusional asking price I’m looking at the inventory collapse. You can't really look at sales, the best is namebio but even then most people arent reporting sub $10k sales

I’ve been monitoring the 888x and 777x .io ranges for a gambling project, and the number of available fee or sub $100 names with these patterns has dropped by like maybe 60% in the past 2 days. I literally watched three 888 names go from available to taken and then immediately pop up on Godaddy for $8k+

My suspicion isn't that 'everyone' is paying $10k it's that a few big portfolios are aggressively 'correcting' the floor to $5k+ to catch the iGaming expansion we’re seeing this year

Is it a punt? Definitely

But when I see GoDaddy's algorithm jumping to a $2.6k appraisal on a name listed for $495 i think its a solid bet

Will update as things go (probably only if i make profit lmao if this goes tits up it never happened)

lmao you think these are my domains because they were bought yesterday? My post is literally about people buying up these domains and relisting them for more

You acknowledged above that you did buy 3 today after posting this thread. Which are the 3 that you bought, that are not 7778.io or 8882.io and were registered in the last 2 hours?

Give Porkbun permission to verify whether you registered 7778.io or 8882.io. If Porkbun confirm you did not register them, I'll give you $495. If Porkbun confirm you did, you give me $495.

Asking prices can create a false floor as the real signal is always recent sales and actual demand also numeric domains can move fast in waves but liquidity outside certain markets is still limited.
