SnapNames Catches The Dropping Domain 358.com & Bidding Is At $80,000

by

The domain name 358.com dropped today and Snapnames.com won the lottery grabbing the domain where its currently in closed auction with 221 bidders.

The high bid as of time of publication is $80,000 and the auction has almost 3 days left.

I’m not sure the last time I saw a pure dropping three numbered domain (NNN.com) but its pretty rare and there is no vertical in the domain space hotter right now than three number domains (well two letter domains).

We are going to open up the poll to see what you think the domain will sell for.

As usual for bragging rights you can also place you exact number in the comments below

The SnapNames.com auction for 358.com closes on Saturday at 3:15 PM EST

The domain was registered at Enom so I’m not sure how the domain did not  go to Namejet.com for auction but it seems to have a been a free drop domain meaning available to first come, first served

The last listed owner was GUI WANG CHEN of Beijing.

    Dang. Snapnames is really coming through lately. For a while it seemed like Pheenix and especially DropCatch were making SnapNames almost obsolete.

    You would think for special circumstances that domains of this caliber would have an extended auction period of at least 30 days. Many that can actually afford to buy this name won’t even know about the auction by the time it finishes. Great for the buyer but bad for Snapnames.
