Maybe they had set the starting price too high…?

Around 3am on Oct 2nd Snap deleted the name and it was caught by a Taster who then dropped it just now. Well, for better or worse… it’s mine now :)

Here they are…

  • 01077.net – Southwick, MA
  • 36543.net- Huxford, AL
  • 17577.net – Souderdburg, PA (NOT ANY MORE!)

My zip code database is OLD! It included 17577, which is no longer valid. Don’t blindly trust any zip code database as these change all the time. An official zip code lookup page is hosted at the United State Post Office website.

And, unless you actually live in one of these places above, DON’T BUY THEM. Population counts for nearly everything when considering random number zip codes NOT in DOT COM (i.e. not 10101 or something similar that has pattern-love).

There’s a reason why these zip code .NET names dropped and are STILL available… :)
