I am going to buy a premium domain from them. Looks like a sister company of web.com. Anyone has an experience transacting with them?
Here's a thread you might want to read through:

I am sure you are not thinking of paying them directly without an Escrow? Always buy through Sedo or Godaddy or Escrow.com.

Friggin' thieves:
Quite a deep analysis but its quite evident that most of the registrars today indulge in stealing valuable expired domain names. One recent was the case of Hosts.com being stolen by Name.com/RightSide. There is a NP thread on it.
ICANN is a dummy organization, they are in cahoots with the registrars and as long as they get their cut, they won't bat an eyelid.
Americans ought to find a solution to this outright theft of valuable expired names by way of a court ruling. I would love to know if any rulings exist on settling these crooks straight.
If someone wants to keep their name safe, they should remember to renew it. If these registrars steal expired names, what's wrong with it? Why is it "stealing" in the first place. How are they different from someone who catches dropped names?
Oh boy, you have much to learn. I will explain for your benefit.
There is an ICANN designated process for expired names. Very valuable expired domain names that are supposed to be dropped are sometimes NOT dropped wilfully by the "stealing" registrars on some pretext and instead transferred to one of their or their partners' accounts. They got the valuable domain "FREE" illegally that's why it's called "stealing".
A "drop" allows all people a fair and equal chance, whether on their own or through technology enabled backorder services to own the domain. The first one to hit the verisign servers with registration request, as soon as a name is dropped, gets the domain.
Most of caught dropped domains end up in private/public auction between the bidders, sometimes ending in five/six figures. That's why drop catchers are NOT thieves since they pay for it in a fair manner.
Yes, there have been many reports of this around the internet.Sometimes they steal unexpired domains and/or domains in transfer.
Very, very shady group.
Yes, I happens to me, Network Solution transfers my domain ownership to New Ventures Services CorpSometimes they steal unexpired domains and/or domains in transfer.
Very, very shady group.
