Undeveloped.com Experience

i too think thats the case but such things should not happen

Hard to imagine that UNDeveloped would bother to contact a potential buyer for any reason other than to collect payment. They’re not paid to do anything more than facilitate payment and transfer of domain.

Wow..This is not right if true.

Undeveloped's role shouldn't be "advisory" when an agreed price is already confirmed by buyer and seller.

I think there's more to this story.

wow that is disturbing if true @Reza

10k might be a small amount for undeveloped as a company but its a pretty big transaction and if this story is true than a mistake of one employee could have caused a lot of financial loss to someone. To put it into perspective 10k USD is more than what the avg Indian employee earns in an entire year.

I dont think it was done intentionally. There might be a communication gap.

I thing so as well that there was some communication problem and Undeveloped staff just not knew that domain already in escrow(external lead), buyer never used or heard about Undeveloped thats why he contacted them and i guess that caused problem and Undeveloped staff never had any bad intention as they are interested as well in sales at higher amount.

Anyway im glad that this sale failed as few months later i sold name at twice more price.

And im still waiting launch of new Undeveloped website on 18 June as everyone here, I like very much Undeveloped interface.

It seems that you've put domain in escrow while it was still listed on UD with your minimum offer?
Buyer then calls UD and they were telling them all about your listed domain along with minimum offer, right?
That was unfortunate for a while...... BUT not for long

Hi Harsh,

I completely agree with you. Every sale counts. Even a $100 transaction should and is being taken serious at all times by our staff.

I’m not familiar with this case and so can’t comment on what happened.

We would obviously never on purpose tank a deal. We miss out on our commission when that happens as well so there’s no incentive ever for anyone working at Undeveloped to do that.

@Argentum feel free to send me more details via a private message. I’d like to learn more.

Kind regards,

Reza

Lead (escrow) was created on Undeveloped by me (seller) with $10k agreed price. After that buyer was in contact with Undeveloped staff and they told him that domain is listed without fixed price but with minumun offer of $5k and he can make that offer to me (seller) and that caused buyer to thing that he overpays for domain which was already in escrow and he decided to cancel deal. Thats all.

All he had to do to discover that was to just search for the domain on Undeveloped.com and find the listing! Didn't need anyone to tell him.

Once you start getting serious offers or closing deals, to play it safe you have to modify or remove all other or lower-priced listings asap. I sometimes delete domains from other platforms if one platform has a serious offer on it.

Wassup with DAN?

Hi Harsh,

Here's a very small sneak preview of how the current Undeveloped logo has evolved into the new:



The final logo is listed in between of above iterations .

Kind regards,

Reza

One request to @Reza , please if you can, add message tracking feature for seller, in Undeveloped dashboard.
apart from it i don't have any complain for Undeveloped.
Great Platform.

Hi Domainuu,

Thank you for the feedback. We've tested offering this. It hasn't become a feature yet though but might in the future.

Kind regards,

Reza

Thanks @Reza I am super keen to see this feature, eventually it will help in more sale for seller and Undeveloped as well.

Its 18 June

I think they are going to wait until local business hours.

Not seeing anything yet ....

Almost June 19th here..

They still have about 5 hours or so I think based on local time...maybe waiting until last second for effect!?!? Eagerly waiting here in the states...

Hi All,

Quick update!

The launch is delayed until tomorrow, unfortunately. We've got everything ready to deploy on our end but have to wait for a US-based partner to execute something they should have executed 4 hours ago.

Tomorrow is the big day! We can't wait to show you what we've been working so hard on!

Have a great evening!

9:30am New York time. I see nothing new.....

I am east coast as well...cant believe I keep checking the site...it better be awesome!!!

add/edit: If they delay again it will not reflect well...btw, I wonder who the US 'partner' is that caused the delay?

Likely delayed again unless they are going for a 5/6 PM UTC unveiling.

I put a cupla domain names on undeveloped and I am getting hits. Should one of them turn into sale I will have a new goto site to place more of my names...

Maybe its so good and the transition was so smooth, that we don't even notice the change.

Don't get too excited. Get Google Analytics, set it up to just get the basic hits, then configure a custom report and then look at your traffic. I can assure you, 95% of your hits are bots or redirects from sites trying to get traffic. Its not UnD's fault, its just the way it works.
