wow thanks.. yeah thats what i thought too. Do you think its unlikely to recieve any typo or misdirected traffic from the 888.com or do you think most of the value is in the Chinese market?.

so you think the - in the name really kills it? I know its definately not a typo for 888.com since its 3 keys away and who makes a typo on a name like that. hehe
What do you see as the best use and value of this name?

If you are lucky, a nazi could buy it off as well, but as they are poor, no chance Im saying this, because 88 means heil hitler as well, the 8th letter of the latin abc is H, that is why. They are using these numbers so they dont have to say the above mentioned disguasting sentence..

I'm sorry, but to be honest, 8-8 isn't lucky in Chinese.

Most Chinese will interpret '-' as the math sign minus, instead of hyphen...i dun think hyphen exists in the Chinese language.

'8' is to prosper, so '8-8' means 'prosper minus prosper', and 8-8=0, and 0 refers to being bankrupt.

Notwithstanding, the domain maybe worth a lot to other cultures.
