How Can I Buy This Particular Toll-free Phone Number?

I've identified a toll free number (1-800-7x4-8x37) that I want to buy. The number is not currently in use, so I'm trying to figure out who owns it or how to buy it. I'm not interested in renting or leasing, but I can't find anyone who offers those options for this phone number either.



If I call the phone number I get a message that says "sorry, the number you dialed is invalid, please check the area code dialed or call directory assistance in the city you wish to reach."



If I look up the phone number using "reverse phone lookup" services like Reverse Phone Detective (http://www.reversephonedetective.com/) or AnyWho (http://www.anywho.com), I get nothing. I even paid Intelius (http://www.intelius.com/) $14.95 to investigate the phone number, and they refunded my money because they couldn't come up with anything.



There are a lot of cell phone lookup services out there. But this is not a cell phone number - it's a toll free (800) number. Are there any services that can help?How Can I Buy This Particular Toll-free Phone Number?
You cant buy a toll free telephone number. You can pay a monthly fee to use the number. Toll free numbers can be rent nationally, regionally, or locally. You will get a certain number of minutes included for your monthly fee. Look at sites like http://www.phonepeople.com.How Can I Buy This Particular Toll-free Phone Number?
A toll free phone service only allows you to subscribe to a certain number. You can't own it but other providers allow number portability so you can switch to another provider without losing your number.
