BeadsandBaubles 10 Posted April 29, 2009 Hi All This is me :confused: - just saw a cellphone number going for R1000. Have they become collectable items? Are we going to see "vintage", "antique", "classic" numbers in the nearby future? Time for me to start bugging my family for all their old sims. Gonna collect me a trunk load-ful and become super rich! I am really confused? Could someone please explain? Regards Sandy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vertigo 10 Posted September 17, 2010 Hi b&b , Sorry to burst your bubble but the cards expire after a few months of no usage , so if you were to collect you would have to use the cards ( all 5000 of them ) every now and then ,,,, Btw. that number will then be allocated to the new contract or a new pre paid starter pack Warm regards vertigo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JvwComputing 10 Posted December 1, 2010 I just bought a number for R2000. The reason is because it's a very easy number to remember and that is great for your clients. It's the same with domain names ect. There have been domain names worth millions just because of the simplicity and popularity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kyle2 10 Posted December 2, 2010 I think this seller is hoping for a miracle, The number has 786 'in the middle somewhere'. The desirable numbers have the normal 082/3/4 786 1234, hence they actually begin with 786. Mine starts with 687 if anyones interested in buying it for R1,000,000.00 LOL:grin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kyle2 10 Posted December 2, 2010 If anyone's interested, the MD of Vodacom supposedly has a number that goes something like this : 082 082 082*, you fill in the blank/s. LOL:laugh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
