I have compiled a list of every 3letter.com that has been reported over the last two years. These were all the names that were reported to DN Journal and published there.
There were some interesting tidbits from the data collected, as I went back through each week by hand and looked at all the 3letter.com sales.
SCQ.com was the lowest reported sale, it was sold for $2,500 in March of 2014. It was then flipped in May for $6,975, not a bad ROI for a domain investor who got the best entry price of anyone buying a 3letter.com in 2013 or 2014.
Oar.com was the opposite, the domain sold for $69,000 in 2013 and was resold for $28,500 in 2014. Both sales occurred on Flippa.
Uth.com was a name that has been in constant motion, the name sold in 2012 for $7,700 and then in 2013 for $7,400 and again in 2014 for $10,400 on NameJet. UTH.org interestingly sold for $9,088 in 2013.
There were 126 reported 3letter.com sales in 2013, with the most popular starting letter being M (11) and then Y (8). In 2014 through August 17,2014 there are 115 reported 3letter.com sales. Again Y is at the top with 10 or roughly 8 % of all reported sales.
The highest sales in 2013 were Fix.com and Hot.com at $850,000. The highest sale in 2014 is BTC.com at $1,000,000.
You will see some names listed twice, they were sold in the same year, the first price is the first sale of the year.

This is awesome, thanx
glad you liked it.
How did someone sells a three letter for 2500 ? that’s really wild.
Great post
It was a great buy Adam and they flipped it fast.
ouch on Oar.com
Yeah that is an ouch for sure, $40,500.
Yes. I was happy with my entry price on this one :-). May develop it or look to sell it for closer to that 2013 price.
Best of luck Marcus.
You’re missing some interesting sales for 3 char, not just 3 letters.
See if you can find them and post it.
This post was not about 3 character it was about 3letter.com.
Nobody really cares about 3char except people who can’t afford LLL dot com.
Russell, it has nothing to do with what people can afford. It’s all data.
Get off your high pony 🙂
John
There are some people with cash Russell who play in the 3 character space. I will look to put something together.
uh… okay. Sorry Ray for asking lol
Good list of 3 letters though 🙂
John
Oh no need to be sorry John, one project at a time, haha. This was done week by week by hand, so the 3 Character one may take a bit of time as I was working on another project. But I will get to it.
Great :), no hurry! Just curious as I had seen some 5 figure sales but do not remember which ones they were.
John
Thanks for the compilation of LLL Sales
Nice work Ray!
Interesting read.
Thank you sir, nice having one of the two greatest Scottish domain investors in the history of the world comment. Hope you are doing well.
These post are your very best Ray!
The labor intensive ones that is 😉
Thanks a lot Doron, glad you liked it.
Nrd.com 14k. I barely missed that one.
Thank you for the data. Its really useful for me to determine buying and selling prices.
I bought my 3 letter for $350 sold it year later for upper 5 figures… There are still some ppl that don’t know value of lll
Congrats.
I brought K##.com on 4.cn in 2013 for $4,900 (including escrow) had it listed on Heritage auctions first domain auction it passed, but recently flipped it for $7800 (buying party paying for escrow of course!)
net: $2,900 🙂
Taking the time to provide us with valuable information and quality posts like this proves that Ray is without doubt, one of the most dedicated, committed and well-respected guys in the industry. Thanks from all, mate!
Thank you Matt for the kind words, glad you liked it.
If you take out the a few at the top and bottom average is near 20K per. Did anyone else reach this same conclusion?
Thanks for the list
QNB.com sold for USD $1,000,000
