Have you received any messages from dot asia about .asia domains?

[james2002]

I am waiting for the messages from dot asia company. I understand that the domain auction will start on 17/03/08 and still I haven't received anything from them about the domains I have been successful and the domains going into auction.

I think it is becoming ridiculous now without getting any info about the domains we applied.

Frustrating !!!!!

I think you applied for very competitive domains.

Dude, they didn't give any guideline when we applied for "available" domains for the Landrush. After a few days of our payment to the registrar, the name shown to be registered. What the hell is that? The registrar doesn't refund the money fully.

During the time of your landrush app it _was_ still in "available" state technically speaking, because neither of the sunrise apps were approved yet. Had they failed to be approved your app would be next in the queue. But apparently it was approved. Don't see anything is wrong woth it at all. People in a numerous threads I said DO NOT preorder loads of names in the very beginning - this is something all registrars wanted you to do by various dull advertising and PR and discounts campaigns. This is just for the benefit of them! You should have thought about this. Registrars are the ones who make good money on us. You should have checked refund policy in advance - many registrars are just robbers with regard to refund policy.

I am not happy with them. I applied for 58 domains and got none. all of them went to auction and I can't afford $10 k or mor eto keep them. All were good domains and one word domains that in the dot com world would be worth millions (I guess multiples of 8 figures) combined.

stocks.asia
pcs.asia
computers.asia
Pc.asia
college.asia

etc etc


domains like those. All were fantastic and If i had gotten them all I would be rich lol. But it unfair. You know if people are registering them then they should not let them have it if they will want to make money at auction. some of my domains I applied for went for over 10K plus.
And I applied during oct. That is just not right. I didnt get one domain that i applied for and lost money in registration cost. i didnt get the full refund.

 

[kam]

[paleoglobe]

Nice one kam!

eSales.asia
Freelancers.asia
Citytrip.asia

I hope these will have potential in the future

This is the first good name out of all threads I come accross ever since .asia released.

 

[MaguirePhD]

pet .asia

Excellent name. Both my sisters would love it as they are pet enthusiasts.

I registered .asia domains thinking like a businesman with no knowledge of generics, as I was thinking of end user as opposed to traffic.

Developing was never an option, as this is not my real business.

I saw Moniker put 12 .asia in the Paris auction and two are mine.

They priced both in the $100,000-$250,000 range.

Of course, that means nothing at all, right now...but at least I am in with a shot.

But if nothing hapens, it won't gray my hair, as it is but a hobby

Good luck to all with your .asia domains
