People selling hey.com invite code for $500

I made the mistake of jokingly asking people if they wanted a hey email address.<p>I had 12 responses in a minute.<p>Two DMs offering $100.<p>They are going to make a killing.

Presumably this is to get a memorable&#x2F;short address right? According to the site, it&#x27;s only invite only till july, so I can&#x27;t think of a reason why people would want to pay $100+ for 1 month of early access. If that&#x27;s the case, what&#x27;s the advantage of [memorable string]@hey.com vs hey@[memorable string].com?

I can&#x27;t understand the pandemonium. It&#x27;s an e-mail account. You likely already have several.
