GoDaddy Introduce Bidder IDs in Auctions

Bob Hawkes · Apr 10, 2019

Starting AFTER tomorrow (Apr 11) GoDaddy will introduce buyer IDs for auction bids.

"Each bidder will be given a unique bidder identification number, which will be different and unrelated to the customer account number to prevent social engineering. Bidder identification numbers will be automatically assigned sequentially, and they can not be changed by a bidder. The only way for a bidder to get a new or different bidder ID is to create or use another GoDaddy Auctions account."

Full details in Elliot Silver's Domain Investing blog post at this link.

This shouldn't be happening. Godaddy should do something.

Look up the Whois on those last few domains...
Winning bidder was HugeDomains...

It’s always HugeDomains. com bidding against you on autopilot but if u bid about $200 more at the end, they let you win.

This is just from my experience...may not be true.

Sometimes this is true, other times no matter how high I've bid they just keep going.
