Hello,

I am currently in the process of buying a 2 letter com domain however I have a question before I do:

Some people told me that it is not longer possible to buy 2 letter coms and it seems like you cannot renew them too.

Since I am paying a lot for the 2 letter com I would like to ask if somebody has more details about this issue cause I don't want to lose it again if I am going to buy it (scared about the renew process)

If you have details please post

Thank you

You can most definitely renew 2-letter .com domains. The measure of expiring 2-letter .org's that cannot be re-registered does not apply to .com and .net domains.

I'm guessing you are paying a heap for it.
26x26=676 of them in the whole world.

I'm interested too, what is the exact price you're paying for a 2 letter domain? Is there a site where you can purchase such domains?

Ouch! I can't imagine what some people would do if it was announced that 2 letter .coms couldn't be renewed. A few leaps from tall buildings would be my guess...

well i would think the price for 2letter.com will fall like shares in wall street.

I know a few that have gotton them for under 10k, recently, but not too recently. And thier prices will only go up, definatly a great investment considering thier rarity. Not to mention e-realestate is booming right now if no one has noticed!
