Hi Folks

It's taken a taken a while for us to get here, but at last we're happy to annouce the release of our Domain Snapper Auction platform!

Like other drop/catch platforms, highest bidder wins the chance to have the expiring domain name registered in their name. No win/catch, no fee. All successfully caught domain names will also incur our standard domain name registration cost of $44.95 on top of the winning bid.

We have two subscription options:

1) 48 hour subscription @ $9.95 (for the more tentative users)
2) Annual subscription @ $109.95

Please follow this link for full details, and information on how to subscribe, and to view the platform:

http://www.netfleet.com.au/expiring-domains

All bugs, feedback and suggestion are very welcome, so please do get in touch

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

I still can`t understand why we have to pay just to try the service.

I don`t pay to try Pool/NameJet (Snapnames must pay me if they want me to use them)

I don`t pay to enter a fancy restaurant and checking it out. I pay if I eat/drink there.

While I notice now the cheapest option available, it still does not make sense to me to have to pay with no guarantee of anything.

I may sound like a bitch in this forum since I just complained about AUDA`s transfer fees but really, if we want this .com.au aftermarket to take off, my advice is not to squeeze domainers like lemons.

My opinion....hope it does not offend you/your company.

Best regards

Expired

Thanks Shaun,

So who gets the funds from the winning bid?

The auctioneer that catches the DN

Thanks Joe,

And yeah I believe them too, having now dealt with both.

But my question was .. 'could they?'

In theory we could consider the following:

1) the second it drops everybody would scramble to whois and check the new owner. If it was apparent the drop catcher had caught the domain for themselves, it would be a big hit to credibility

2) the drop catcher would be missing out on the cold hard cash that the underbidder was prepared to pay. Eg they put in a phoney bid of $1,000,001 to out bid the highest genuine bid of $1,000,000, they'd be missing out on that revenue.

3) if the drop catcher really only set up the systems to catch domains for themselves, why bother with the hundreds of hours of stuffing around with front-ends, payment systems, marketing etc etc

Just to be clear: At DROP we have publicly stated that we do not place bids on our own auction site, and IMPORTANTLY neither will we place bids at other auction sites. This is our opinion is a conflict of interest.

George Pongas

Relax, I only asked the question of if it were possible. No one is accusing anyone of anything, even though there is a direct answer to each of your replies above.

A yes or no from the start would of sufficed.

And still hasn't come. hahaha!
