A Positive Note on a Difficult Day

07-30-2004, 03:11 PM

My day started w/ my car not starting and a call to a towing co to have it hauled into a service garage. This was followed by an email from a bidder on an eBay auction (for domain names), letting me know that he wasn't going to buy, because eBay had yanked the auction and strongly urged him not to purchase the items from this auction. Next came a letter from eBay explaining why they removed the auction and stating that another similar incident would cause them to suspend my account. Next up, was an an apology message from GoDaddy, letting me know that they were unsuccessful in their backorder attempt for a name I really was hot on: banana.biz

Finally some good news!

GreatDomains has decided to list two of my names:

4MD.net -and-
4Rx.net

I'll add the exclamation marks when the check arrives.

Hey G
It was bananas.biz I think you were trying for.
(Banana is still reg'd.)
So was I but Blueberry Hill nailed another one.
They are very good.

We will just have to try harder next time.
Good Luck on your Great Domain listings.

A difficult day for the most but then a nice surprise like your domains being listed - congrats on this and remember - tomorrow is another day.

Heh, maybe having your eBay account suspended may be a good thing. Maybe we should all get our accounts suspended. Teach them guys a lesson!

Great news on GreatDomains,

You know, come to think of it, when I add it all up, I think I have had more bummers than positive experiences there.
