Auction a domain while still in 60-day transfer lock?

[Jul]

Does anyone know if its legally "okay" to put a domain in auction (sell a domain) that is still in transfer lock? I think if I explicitly state that in the auction description it should be okay, right?

Even if it is under 60 days transfer lock, you can push the domain to the said user's account at same registrar. If he wants to move away from this registrar he can do it once 60days period is over. Its simple.

Really...? Are you sure of that? Thats great - didnt know that before
So if I buy a .com where I see the price is lower that I think I can sell it - I can buy it and sell it on right away...?!

ye definitely, I have done that so many times. Did it again couple of days ago on godaddy.

i think you mean 60 days transfer lock as auction lock after an aftermarket purchase?
Or the 60 days transfer lock due to registrar transfer or new registration?

These 2 cases are totally different

Transfer lock only means you cannot transfer it to another registrar. If the auction is on GoDaddy, then when you receive the domain it will have a fresh 60 day transfer lock. But you can still push it to somebody else at the same registrar.

I have sold several domains on Ebay few days after I register them but always specify on the listing that the buyer as a mandatory requisite to receive the domain must have an account with the current registrar of the domain.
