38.com

38.com fetched $20,000 on Afternic in March 2004. The label is purely numeric — 2 digits and no letters, a shape that appears rarely among .com sales. That is 4.4× the median .com sale in our records ($4,500), putting it in the top 11% of .com transactions since 2023. The .com cohort we track since 2023 now holds 6,735 sales, a median of $4,500 and a top decile above $22,473. No earlier sale of this exact name appears in our records, so this is its first tracked transaction. Afternic accounts for 126 sales in the database, 126 of them in .com. Closest .com comparables in the same price band include cmpt.com ($20,000) and sirank.com ($20,000).
