Actually, there is a market in 800 numbers, companies will often pay for good numbers (1-800-4my-idea, example). There is actually a major shortage of 800 numbers, which has lead to 888,877, and 866 numbers being used on a regional basis. So if a company wants a vanity 800 numbers, they are forced to "buy" the rights from the current number holder.

Sort of like domains, only slower.
