I've not done much afternic though been member there for years.. I just had all my stuff listed makeoffer only there.. but after hearing so much good coment and sales from their BIN partner netowrk.. actually just a day ago I decided to put all my names on BIN there.. for now I set same bin for all names.. slightly higher than should be.. just to do a bti of big fish fishing so to speak... I'll rework bins in time as find moments to do it.
Afternic doesn't mark the domain sold and sent sold email till their partner verifies the funds. The domain has been in "pending sale" status since Monday. Called yesterday to check on it and the rep explained it partners had a pending sale and funds were being verified. He explained that the status should be updated today and it would either go to sold or if funds couldn't be verified that the "pending Sale" would be removed. Apparently the funds couldn't be verified.
Hopefully the buyer will get funds sent and the partner can verify the funds. If so, it can than get marked as sold and go through the afternic escrow process.
