Hi there, and thanks for the suggestion! I'll be forwarding this request to the right department. I'll let you know if there's news. Thanks again, and talk to you soon.

sorry if already asked, but can u explan why you charge min $60 fee when every other place charges $15-20 min? I never figured that one out.

thanks.

Sure!

The minimum fee includes:

- The technical domain transfer
- A personal transfer agent that guides you through the transfer process (like, real people working for you)
- An individual purchase agreement
- Secure payment of the purchase price ·

Let me know if you have any questions.

thank you for quick reply. your support sure does seem great.

to be honest, I am not particularly sure which of these points are also provided by those other places that charge the $15-20 I mentioned. maybe none, maybe all. I really have no clue. I do believe godaddy auctions with the $15 min fee, offers pretty mcuh all of it.

is there any chance you can reduce that fee, cause from looks of it no one in the right mind wil now opt to sell a $100 on your site to get $40 from it when they can do same at say godady and get $85 back? appreciate you forward this to higher management.

you are simply 4-5 more expensicve than everyone else around you. I do not see how this is a good thing for you or for domainers. regards

Sedo · Jan 9, 2017

Sure, you're welcome, and thank you for the kind words.

The minimum selling price for domains at Sedo is $90, the minimum fee $60. Please always have in mind what amount you want to receive in the end. Price your domains accordingly, and you'll be happy at Sedo, even with low three-figure sales

yes thanks. I am aware of all this.

what I am trying to express to you however is that people/domainers own domains they wish to sell or which are valued in lower ranges too. say 100-300$ .. or even just up to $100.

so I was suggesting that for such sales and people, selling on sedo does not become competitive option.

and then I asked if you can do something about this. to make it competiive.

thanks.

Sedo · Jan 9, 2017

Gotcha. I'll send this discussion to the right department and get back you if there's a development.

that's be really nice of you.

I think you had that minimum in place for how many years again? and possibly, received 100s of requests to lower it since then.. so my hopes are not high. but not dead either.

perhaps by allowing 100 000 more people per year to sell their $100 on sedo at $15 fee, by lowering you fee, versus the 10 000 people who may be doing it now with your current minimums out of synch with other marketplaes... this can stll put 900k extra profit in your pocket. just a quick math.. but something like that. I think you get the picture.

thanks again for your considerations.

@Sedo is there any other registrars you don't do internal transfers with besides netfirms.
I recently sold a name for $125 - $60 fee and i had to send buyer auth codes.
Usually it would be transferred into your account.
Guy in charge said you don't do internal transfer with netfirms and i wondered if that include dotster or any other registrar?
Like Alcy said I paid $60 fee on $125, and it took like 10 days to complete. Your fee for $100-200 names is to much, considering I am doing a 3 way thing with sending code to you to give to buyer, for them to transfer from netfirms to goodaddy,this person could have dragged it out much longer.
Please list registrars you dont do internal transfer to your escrow please
I like the make offer option on bin pages, nice touch

So the fees covers domain transfer. I recently bought a .co.uk Domain through Sedo. As Sedo did the transfer from the seller to its account, I was sent an extra invoice of £10 for handling the transfer.

But I had to pay an extra 2.5% on top of purchase price for secure payment.

I believe you are referring to the non-publication fee? Usually we publish our sales to inform the media, to educate end-users and for other marketing purposes. If you wish that your domain transfer stays confidential, we charge a 2.5% fee, that is correct.

Thanks for your message! I'll make sure to pass along the compliment about the BIN page.

The change in pushing domains is due to the changes in ICANN transfer policies. The list of registrars that allow pushing (without a 60-day lock) will continue to expand, but right now not all do support the "internal transfer". It DOES work with these registrars, among others: Internetx, Name.com, Dynadot, ename, and Fabulous.com.

Much better than the previous design. Still doesn't look very appealing.

Thanks, but this screenshot is showing the visitors of SEDO parked pages only.

I made an original screenshot (current circumstance) and a fictionary one (as a before / after) comparison what I mean:

ORIGINAL SCREENSHOT
Show attachment 36153

At this (original) screenshot we can see 3 circles:

VISITORS PER MONTH (only if the domain is parked via SEDO - otherwise this would be N/A)

REGISTERED (offerd at SEDO since)

BIDS SUBMITTED

FICTIONAL SCREENSHOT
Show attachment 36154

At this (fictional) 'screenshot' we can see 5 circles:

YEAR OF REGISTRATION

LISTED ON SED SINCE

MONTHLY VISITORS DOMAIN / WEBSITE

MONTHLY VISITORS OFFER PAGE

BIDS SUBMITTED

Hi everyone, we just released a new version of our offer page. We took your feedback into consideration and changed the "Domain Facts" section.

There won't be any N/A fields anymore
There can be up to 6 Domain Facts displayed, instead of 3 from before
- offer views
- number of watchers
- traffic (if parked)
- number of bids
- first registration date (not "listed since" anymore)
- Search engine search requests for the SLD
The Facts will now be displayed on mobile devices as well

I've added a screenshot, so you can see what I'm referring to. We'll keep optimizing our pages to make them work best for you. Let me know if you have any questions.

nice!

have you taken into consideration in any shape or form the 534545454 requests people made to offer som consideration and accomodation to those who may want to use your site to sell domains in the upto $200 or so range... and not be forced to pay $60 min for that?
otherwise your just losing cliens.. and everyone is going to flippa, godaddy afternic for those sales.. where they charge 15-20%

I mean it must feel just awful to be the highest charging and most unreasonable min sale price auction site in the whole industry... any thoughts on this and hopefully a swift fix? thanks!

Can these domain facts be turned off or set to 0 ?

Sedo · Jan 24, 2017

You can deactivate showing traffic. If there's no data available, we'll just show a message "no data is currently available". The facts shown always depend on what data your domain has and if it's relevant.

carob · Jan 24, 2017

Any news on 2FA at Sedo?

So we can't select which domain facts to show, Sedo will automatically show the domain facts (up to 6) if there's relevant data for each one. Is that right?

Not right now, no. I did pass on the info I got from here and we're discussing the issue,. We're working on some product-related and interface-related items right now and will finish these first. I'll let you know if here's any development.

Are you talking about Parking ads?

MasterOfMyDomains · Jan 24, 2017

The butt name, yes. Parked. The ads are adult even though I have blocked adult words. Keyword is jokes

Background picture i am referring to is one for offer page, as in the example you posted above.

Mummy> food?

You can't change the picture on the offer page. It's an automated system. Hmm, not sure why you still see adult ads. Did you change the keyword just recently? It might be easiest to contact CS at [email protected], so we can check out this behavior.
