Has anyone used undeveloped.com to sell domains? They claim to be able to increase a domainers sales by 54%.
whois shows dns.undeveloped for it already.. so I think it should just show 2015.co in address bar.
is this odd?

@wizard may I ask for your portfolio size?
I've never recieved any fake order/purchase with around 150 names (sold few this year) but I see many people are complaining about that. Thanks
I read somewhere on Undeveloped.com that sales are not published - can anyone find that exact text? Because it wasn't clear if that is a policy and whether that means sellers or buyers should not publish sales. When Undeveloped.com publish sales, as above, do they seek consent of buyer and seller?
By comparison, as I recall on Sedo all sales by default are public unless you tell them to not publish your sales

I am starting to get fed up of no payers and jokers on undeveloped it seems to happen far to often and something else needs to be put in place.
If this carrys on i will move thousands of domains away as i feel we dont get enough info about buyer and lots of people are getting away with not paying and i cant do much with fake email address and number .....
Really annoying
Unfortunately i'm seeing the same thing, had 2 fake buyers in around a week and i'm now at the point where I simply don't believe anymore if payment will go through or not (today agreed a sale, payment not gone through yet, no idea if legit or not). It's getting worse lately, getting beyond a joke now. I'm also talking about people negotiating with me and still refusing to pay when payment is accepted.
Something has to change here or else i'm going to consider my options as well.

I think a probable solution of addressing buyers not paying and sellers being in control could be to allow sellers to be able to send messages to buyer through chat box until to the point transaction closes. Obviously Undeveloped could still oversee the process but I think it'll enable us to remind buyer through use of chatbox regarding payment and would give us sellers more control.

I also believe we as sellers underuse chat box, before agreeing on a price provided its negotiated agreement, we can explain to buyers that there is time constraint, we could also set BIN and ask buyer to hit that as that'll require them to go through checkout their won't be non payers. I totally understand what you're saying and I believing an option for buyer and seller to communicate through chatbox could help us sellers be in a lot more control than we are right now.Yes true the issue is you dont have much control and dont see anything like the others show ie email etc so we all rely 100% on undeveloped following this up with the buyer i find if they dont pay in the first few days they never do pay.
It also would mean that there won't be snitchers, quite sure a platform that solely relies on a minimal %age of commission is perhaps scared to give away control because there's many people out there who'd go around them and close deals privately should they get the lead themselves.thats great idea
why @Undeveloped isnt doing it?
u can now ask undev to remibd buyer but its not same as u having control..its almost like undev doesnt trust enuf sellers they have skill to finalize sale.. while currently opposite is true and many sales now fail while under undev control
My understanding (I have not personally tried to sell on Sedo, so hopefully this is still correct) is that Sedo normally publish unless the buyer or seller pay an extra fee to keep the transaction private.
but how can this be platforms fault? or why do u think they would pay elsewere? other platforms do not have any special measures in place like charging buyer right away etc..so why should we think it would work better elsewhere? thoughts?

Are domains taken off the marketplace when a price is agreed?
If so, fake buyers can have motives to tie up a domain - to remove competition, to freeze it at that price while they sell it on to someone else, to hold it while they try to gather funds. Or they are just gathering data about what price it would really sell at.
Is there no way to put an advance charge/deposit on offers?
