Domain Sales
A few short, meaningful, numerical domains have shifted on Sedo today.
Among them is 313.com, which sold for $25,000. Its end-user value mostly likely lies in 313 being the area code for Detroit, a city of almost a million people.
Similarly, 949.com has sold for $13,560. It’s the dialing code for Orange County in Southern California, as well as being used in various radio stations’ frequencies.
Meanwhile, 421.com has sold for 8,955 euros ($12,229).
