17 Premium Keyword Mobiles hit $310 on eBay

iNod · 11-01-2006, 08:07 PM

With 2 days left the premium .mobi list has hit $310 on eBay. The current bidder has no feedback but the second place bidder has 10 feedback. So they are willing to pay $310 for that set.

I don't know if that is shill bidding though. It does look suspicous. But I emailed eBay and I will let you know any results.

Shill bidding is if you or your friends bid it up to stick it to some other bidder . What I think you mean is potential non-paying buyers, sometimes kids having fun (not common) or people who get buyer's remorse or do not recognise the commitment they are making, which does happen a lot with new bidders.

If the high bidder doesn't pay you can offer it to the #2, although often they decide not to buy (there is no obligation for the #2).

You can file a non-paying buyer report and not have to pay final value fees and get a free relist if they do not pay.

Often the bidding only really happens in the last 3 minutes. (Ebay secretly owns a stake in Advil). You are looking OK.

Yeah, Thats my auction. I contacted the member with 0 feedback. And that member has showed me good Trader rating here for namepros. So im willing to trust the member for now. But with 47 Watchers, Im sure he will be outbided.

I hope you're right, and with that many, you probably are, but I've found in my Ebay experiences (for any type of auction) that watchers don't usually equate to bidders in the end. Many of them are watching just out of interest or to see how much the item, which they have themselves and were considering selling, will go for. I bet you've got a lot of people here signed up as watchers so they can keep track of the proceedings.

But I wish you the best with it, of course!

I've seen a few random LLL.mobi domains sell on ebay lately for $100 minumum too. If that is maintainable, it looks real good for the person who snapped up the last few thousand.
