Default Bidding on oi.com.au

Can anyone work out why oi.com.au would be bidded to $6500 on netfleet auctions?

Seems very strange to me.

It was a standard catalogue listing on Netfleet that the seller pushed to auction. Any active offers on standard listings are upheld in the auction...

I wouldn't have picked oi.com.au to be worth that much. It will be very interesting to see what Townsville.com.au goes for.

I have four domains up for auction this week. One of them may struggle to reach the minimum bid, but hopefully the others will sell. None of them have reserves.

Affluent.com.au
YoungProfessionals.com.au
Financial-Planners.com.au
Paraplanner.net.au

I originally had intentions to develop all four of them for my financial planning business, but a change in our target market makes them less useful for me.

Why the large jump between 2500 to 8000. Shill?

I'd suggest some offline emailing between new bidder and seller. Seller perhaps suggests to place bid on NF for added layer of security.

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi.

Any large companies with OI?

and also is very brandable...

Can't see typo traffic being significant at all tbh. And who really typos pressing 2 x o's?

But look global "OI" has way more traffic then "OO"

Also oi is the brand name for many companies too...
