Will Sedo will make things right with the October GreatDomains auction sellers? - Page 2

JMO, if you had domains that sold but did not meet potential, and there was a denial of service attack, then your auctions should be null and void, since sedo was unable to perform their auction service at an acceptable level of service. I think a letter from a lawyer might expedite communications with you, imo.

Also, Sedo had the domain ChocolateBars.com advertised in both of their banners for the full seven days of the auction.

They did that for Holborn.net in September's sale too. It generated $70

My experience seems to be the same as most. I went to Sedo to place bids and could not get on the site at all for an extended length of time...

for the record I had a domain (electricians.us) which I sent to a Sedo auction I believe at $750, it was not until about 4 minutes left that a second bidder appeared and then for the next half an hour or so the bidding continued and didn't end until it hit $2550... if sedo would have been down for that last 5 minutes of my auction I would have been out close to $1.800 and that was on a ccTLD not a premium .COM

I appreciate all of your feedback, comments, support etc!

Still no word from Sedo's Director of Sales...

Hmmm, saw "Sedo Auctions" in this thread earlier.

Unfortunately, the October GreatDomains auction sellers have been lied to and basically left to fend for themselves.

I realize that this fraud is small time when compared to the SnapNames fiasco however, it is sad that I haven't been able to get much traction with regard to getting this story out.
