Would you bid on Jenny's number?

No. Because I have no idea who Jenny is and without further explanation there’s no way I’m clickin on that link.

EDIT: Now that I know what’s so special about this number I would definitely NOT bid on it.. it’s just a number..

Jenny from the Tommy Tutone song – 867–5309! They are bidding one of the last remaining 867–5309 numbers on Ebay. I wouldn’t either…I would pull my hair out if I had to deal with that many calls.

Heck no! The link boasts about the number getting 10,000 calls each year. That doesn’t sound appealing to me at all. Pass.

Not for that much I wouldn’t!

Slightly off topic, someone please deliver me from my personal anguish and tell me I am not the only flutherer who has seen Tommy Tutone in concert! They were an opening band, and I can’t remember who was the main attraction.

~ Eight six seven five three oh ni-ee-iine! ~

No I wouldn’t.

Only a masochist would want that number.

Though I wonder if anyone has PEnnsylvania 6–5000? Or BEechwood 4–5789? Or 777–9311?

If it gets 10,000 calls a year a business will probably buy it and put advertisements on it.

it was her old DJ business.

Why would anyone purposely want a number that many people dial just for fun, to see if someone picks up?

A business I could see wanting this number. An individual, maybe a highly social one, might want it too. But not me.

Totally.
But I would never spend more than a few thousand, and I would never use it. I woud just know I had it and lurve it.

If I had more money, yes. I’d bid on the number, get a dedicated phone for it, and basically just use it for the random people you KNOW think “oh, hey, I wonder if anyone has this…” and call.

But since I don’t have just gobs of money hanging around, it would have to be my number so no. Because the random calls might get annoying and no one would believe me when I gave it to them. No way I wouldn’t sing it and once you sing it, it seems unlikely. Of course, I could also make it my ring tone…

What happens when you call 867–5309 from your area code?

It’s a busy signal in my home area, and not in service for my mobile.

I get an answering message playing the song occasionally, more often than not I get a this mailbox is full line.
