Sorry for the double post but I just felt I needed to say my piece on this matter:
This really is a tragedy for the whole AU industry if NetFleet shuts down its AMA - the AMA is the only thing that brings efficient liquidity to the AU market.
I really hope NetFleet reconsider and just continue to run it as is until they release a new version.
I know I'm one of those people that have become complacent about the AMA and haven't posted any domains on it in the last couple of months (and I have expressed my reasons why previously), but if I knew it was going to be closing down I definitely would have put a few up before it did!
Is there any chance you guys would be willing to reopen it or at least have "closing date" rather than just closing it out of the blue...?
And I really hope you guys don't think that the AMA can't work - I honestly think it can - and whilst I get your premise of the AMA is not achieving catalogue prices so why should you bother, but I think that overlooks the most valuable thing the AMA offers - liquidity.
I think it's far more important that there is a place that someone can go to sell their domain tomorrow for 30% - 50% of its catalogue price than it is that you have an auction platform that achieves catalogue prices (that's just unrealistic).
I would implore you to reconsider a few of the suggested tweaks to help improve the results of the AMA:

https://www.dntrade.com.au/netfleet-com-au/7259-ama-seller-feedback.html
I think with these tweaks you would see a flood of domains being listed on the AMA - and more transactions occurring at higher prices (which is ideal for NetFleet) - and more importantly than that you'd see domains being REGULARLY added to the AMA because it would achieve good results for sellers.
