Looking for domains and websites on ebay is like looking for money in the streets: there is lots of it out there, but it takes too much time and effort to find it.

But today I stumbled across a 3 letter domain name that is currently for sale at Ebay.com

8UI.com

Not a bad domain name, and the ease at which you can type it is certainly a plus factor. So let’s see what the seller has to say about this domain name:

There are only 17,576 (26 x 26 x 26) 3-letter .com domain names. All of them are already registered. The last one was registered sometime in the beginning of 2000.

For those who are curious, all 3-letter .net names were registered by 2001. The last 3-letter .org name was registered in 2003.

The prices have been rising ever since, with 3-letter .com names selling for about 10 to 15 times the selling price of an equivalent .net domain.

The average annual return of a 3-letter .com domain has been ever 30%, with some names providing 100% gain per year! More recently, 3-letter .com domains have been appreciating at a rate of 5% to 7% per month.

Here are some recent sales figures for 3 letter .com domains from domain name industry journal Dnjournal . com:

NHS $151,300
GLU $75,000
OLT $93,000
GED $150,000
VIP $600,000 cash & $800,000 in stock ($1.2 million!)
UJC $17,400
SCW $60,000
ASB $50,000

Here is some examples of what you can use it for:

1- You can invest in it and resell it within a year (or 2) for 30% to 60% of the price you will pay now.
2- You can resell it immediately to any of the following ui abbreviations:

The possibilities are endless (search Google ui= 120000000 results and 8ui= 104000 results)
3- very easy to remember (look at your keyboard now) all three keys next to each other.
4- forward domain to your existing site whether business or personal (name don’t matter if it’s not related to your site, after all what was the meaning of Google or xanga)
5- start a whole new brand to do business with.
6- You will profit from it.
7- UI is also a music band name.

note: Midascode are not recommending that you purchase this domain, and we certainly feel the $9,000 BIN price is too much, but you can see the listing for yourself here: ebay domain names
