Here is the story.
-I have a domain listed on GD Auctions with Buy Now price.
-This domain gets counteroffers and offers from private buyers, Afternic and GD potential buyers on a weekly/monthly basis.
-Recently a person wanted to "buy" this domain via GD Auctions marketplace and I was informed by GD that "buyer" wanted to use Escrow.com and that we will finish our transfer there. After 10-ish days of silence from "buyer" I talked to Escrow and they told me that they never heard back from him/her once Transaction started (buyer never choosed his method of payment etc..)
-So I talked to GD and they told me I can request to cancel the sale so I can relist domain, BUT only after 15 days.
-So I waited more and overall I lost 20+ days with the fake buyer. Politely asked GD to not allow this "buyer" to be able to Buy my domains.....
-Nevertheless I got Email 2 days ago from Escrow and GoDaddy (again) that there is a buyer and he wanted to finish transaction via Escrow (sure thing). I instantly knew this was the same time waster that obviously have some agenda.
Now, I will lose another 20 days AGAIN, my domain is delisted AGAIN from GD marketplace and I will need to contact GD AGAIN with my story, and 2 dozens of Emails later I will probably have domain relisted again..
How to stop this? (is there an option to decline Escrow.com transactions if you are selling via GD Auctions Marketplace?)
Is this new?
Have you experienced this before?
Why are people so sad?
Is there a life after death?
