Afternic 'Pending Sale'

[OceanKing]

Hello,

Afternic shows one of my domain is 'Pending Sale' since 3 Days (From Thursday to Sunday now).

This is my first experience with afternic.
Googling shoes this mean some one brought my domain @ bin. But afternic yet to clear his payment.

Should I keep any hope that the sale will go through ?

It will most likely sell. I would say that 8/10 that i have go pending, do indeed sell.

Afternic takes days for payment to be made, some members have even said 21 days.

however whether 'Pending Sale' means it has been sold or not?

other members can answer that,

I had a domain in "pending sale" for a week one time, just be patient, it goes by the time it takes for the buyer to actually pay the funds to afternic.

Sometimes they dont go through too

Have you not received any email from Afternic regarding this? I'd be surprised if it's Pending Sale without any communication from them. But I could be wrong. Was this on Fast Transfer?

Theres a tab in the control panel that you can set to pending sale it will show you if you have one with out getting a email. You get a email once the payment is approved

Still looking to get domains on Afternic, can you confirm which of these statements are true?


Are all Fast Transfer listings in the Premium service?

or all Premium services listings are Fast transfers?

or any other?

Hi folks,
Thanks for replies.

- Basic listing.
- Domain is in Gandhi.
- In Afternic 'Fast Transfer' column shows 'No (Requires Submission)'. Info link next to it shoes to opt in to fast trans, contact support.
- No any email regarding this so far. Even also checked spam in my gmail. Nothing.

Once payment is verified then you will receive email.

That mean AN already secured the payment?

most probably yes but is in verification process.

Chances are 50 - 50. Someone might add your domain to cart at partner registars. Then it would simply show as pending sale. Afternic will give 7 days for payment confirmation. If the payment has been cleared at partner registrar sale would go throw. Otherwise your listing will go back to forsale.

Pretty clear

Hi all,

Just want to let you know that after roughly 6 days , the 'Pending Sale' domain has become 'Listed' (For Sale) again. That mean buyer has not paid it seems.

Thank You for the comments.

This has happened to me. Quite often I will raise the BIN price by 20 - 30%. On two occasions, the purchaser has come back to complete purchase at higher price.

This is interesting

In most cases, it may take 7 days to find out if a pending sale is completed.

This is a flaw in the MLS system.

Whenever someone just places any domain for sale on Afternic's MLS in their shopping cart it immediately puts the domain in a "Pending" sale status in the owners Afternic account.

I went to one of the mls websites (Network Solutions) to test this and as a guest I searched for one of my domains listed for sale and I just clicked Add to Cart and instantly that domain went into Pending Sale in my Afternic account.

I immediately removed it from the cart but it has yet to change its status from Pending to Listed and its been several hours already.

I don't know how long it will stay in Pending Sale but every minute its in there it cant be sold on the MLS.
And if that happens to be 6 days or a week then that is a problem

I would prefer it go into a Pending Sale status only when the buyer actually makes the payment and not before.

I would appreciate if someone else would test one of their domains to see if I am correct.

Thanks
