Getting a 212 phone number will cost you

The classic 212 area is still coveted. And it is almost impossible to get these days. David Cole bought a 212 area code for $75 to replace his area code from Ohio. He was trying to land a job with an architecture firm in New York and didn't want to seem like he had just gotten off the bus. The 212 area code was used up years ago. That is when you started seeing the 917 area code pop up.
