You'll end up going higher so you might as well make the change now. Good idea base though.

I understands that it is quite likely to evolve toward more than just one domain per day. On the other hand, there shouldn't be too many, otherwise it would look like any other marketplace. Half-a-dozen per day, maybe?

Thanks for all the feedback everyone, we are listening! Many of these ideas are either built or in the works already, and you will see them come onto the site in time.
Keep the feedback coming, it's very much appreciated.

I like the 1-domain-a-day idea - kind of like the Woot of the domain world (and Woot seems to be getting lots of positive feedback at the moment).

Like others have said, though, it's unfortunate that the domain chosen for launch day has been shot down in flames by the expert panel on the home page - I too would've expected a better one for relaunch day! Here's hoping everything goes well for Bido, nonetheless. I'm looking forward to the event later today!

Yes - it's a pretty shameless spin off Woot.com.

Classic example of a mediocre idea with a powerful marketing force behind it - IMHO.

Bidding is up to $216 now for the domain EquityGrant.com
Where do you think it will end at?

my feedback is to move the time of the daily auction back 90 minutes. that would put it ahead of snapnames and namejet. it would add more west coast, u.s. bidders imho.

nice sale this morning!

The idea was to start the Auction at 1pm Eastern time. That's part of the whole "1" thing going on with the platform.

Congrats Bido team for the return auction and sale of the domain !

The first one ended pretty well considering the Industry Comments ... and for the first auction after re-launch.

I'm hoping it all works out for you guys Jarred - We need all the active Sales venues we can get

Will be watching -

Shocking result.

Names submitted, perhaps the insanity will continue at least another 2 weeks or so until I can get a name up there!
