Sedo is the Biggest Joke


Tired of Sedos Stupid Games

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I buy a name through sedo, not only does it take them a month to get it to me after they have my money, but then I find out the stats for the domain on there site is about 9,000 uniq a month incorrect. actually it gets 0 uniqs.

Now sedo refuses to reply to emails or questions.

Making an offer through Sedo has the following advantages over making an offer through e-mail:




Quote:
Security: All domains purchased through Sedo benefit from the security and convenience of Sedo’s Domain Escrow/ Transfer service free of charge.


Anonymity: Your identity is protected, which prevents the seller from researching your means and how badly you need the domain name—information which he can use to turn the negotiations to his advantage.


Convenience: You know that domains listed on Sedo are available for sale, so you don’t waste time chasing down owners only to find that they’re not selling. In addition, Sedo provides you with the information you need to make an informed purchase decision, such as asking price and traffic. Our online offer-counteroffer system makes conducting the negotiations easy and fun.



<<< the reasons you should buy through sedo!! >>>>>


What a freaking Joke!

What a waste of time and money, Sedo can bite my rear end they will never get another penny out of me, and as far as I care sense they act as the escrow service for the sale they are as resonsible as the person selling the domain, especially since they did not detect the false traffic reported on their system.

Hi ecollins,

We replied to your call earlier today with more details. My associate whom was originally contacted by you is working along with your transfer agent to resolve the issue.

Best,
Mara

buyer beware. why would you buy a domain that has stats which you havent given due diligence to??

If you have been misrepresented then thats a different matter. But im sure sedo have some clause that you should be totally satisfied with the stats before buying. i mean how the heck do they defend against traffic bots..

I would never buy any domain based upon traffic unless said traffic was obvious..

But still, we live and learn
