Default 108.net.au

if 108.net.au dropped for $542 should i keep 222/net/au ?



i was quite surprised to see that price for a numeric domain in net.au

maybe i am missing something ???

It use to be a design business, It was on my list of domains to bid for..

But I do not think it is worth that much...people seem to pay crazy amounts for domains on DROP the last few months, way over priced imo

Default 108, a great number.

Sometimes it's all about individual estimation of the worth of a thing. 108 is actually a pretty special number in many cultures, the Wikipedia page for 108 lists several reasons why this semi-perfect number is so special:

Wikipedia - 108 (number)

Probably bought for the old links, old web design company as James says.

I don't think it says anything for other 3 number .net.au, surely there is hundreds of these available?

eg I just tried these

109.net.au - available
107.net.au - available
208.net.au - available

Regarding 222.net.au I don't think it is worth anything, could just register 333.net.au. (actually I think that is an even better name).

So either my whois checker is broken, (because everything I try is available), or these names are not very good.

108 is significant in Indian philosophy. 108 beads on mantra beads to count as you chant a mantra 108 times, for example. just a few days ago I checked to see if 108.com.au was available. Not
