7 million dollar 800 number on ebay

800-200-0000 is the lowest tollfree number available

I’ve seen a number of toll free numbers listed on ebay. The values vary dramatically, but unfortunately the vast majority never sell. But today I think they set a record for the highest 800 number listing at 7 million dollars (ebay item# 170341309535) view screenshot. There’s very little chance of it selling but I thought the fact that someone thought this number was worth several million dollars was interesting.

I did a little checking and the number is used for a taxi service called 800-4-MY-TAXI which I linked to from the image above which is the header of their website. I’ll have to redo my ebay 800 number listings post with the newer numbers since I have a lot of them. But I thought I’d point this one out while it was still active. Not that anyone is going to fork over 7 Mil, but it does remind us of the value of really low numbers and numeric 800 numbers too.

    This makes even our premium numbers (still under a grand) look pretty cheap, huh?!

      They apparently lowered the price to 3 million and put up terms to lease it for $15,000 – $25,000 month, with 100,000 down payment. They also claim to have sold 800-200-0001 for 100K. So this one is clearly worth more than 100K.

      I’m not sure it could be worth 30 times as much. Setting the price of the 0001 at 100K says that this one is probably worth 2 to 5 times as much, somewhere between $250 to $500,000. And I think they might get someone in the satellite business crazy enough to spend that. (they love low numbers in the Satellite business)

        Your recent newsletter arrived in time to remind me of the outstanding advice you gave me a couple of months back when I first began thinking about getting a toll-free number. The mere fact that you responded to my e-mail question with a personal phone call impressed me! I was even more impressed by your availability and your advice. You could have easily sold me your services, but instead advised me to pursue a considered course of action and get back in touch whenever necessary. You can be certain the next time I need toll-free services, you're the only one I'll contact.

        Best wishes,

        Wow!!! I've been all over your site for a while to be sure I had enough information to make an informed decision. I read countless testimony's and never imagined they could be so accurate. When I called and Bill picked up and showered me in information and help. I knew I was making the right choice. Getting 877-MY-OMNI1 was better than I was expecting.

        Thanks!!!

        Thanks for your reply and explanation. I'm pretty new to this whole idea, and I do appreciate your help.

        You're a credit to online business. All we ever hear about are the online businesses that rip people off...it's great to meet you and a company that is an example of business ethics and customer service.

        I was originally impressed by the fact that you, the owner, are so accessible. I'm sure as your company grows, that might not always be practical, but it's truly a great marketing edge.Automotive Software Solutions

        Thanks again,

        After doing thorough research on the, it became clear to us that TollFreeNumbers.com was really the only truly unbiased, objective source of toll-free numbers in the industry. It was a pleasure doing business with them and we reserved a great vanity number within a few minutes of making the request!
