@DAN.COM twitter saying you scamming buyers twitter.com/StartupsCompany
Domains added to Dan.com by Chinese scammers

I tried to purchase some domains on Dan.com and what i found after inserted my details the button NEXT after capcha is not working just disabled so impossible to send offers. I contacted to godaddy and button was unblocked..

So guys if you're thinking why your domains not selling on dan.com it's because they are blocking buyer offers.

So Dan’s blocking domain sales cause they don’t want to earn money ?
That makes sense

 

[Naming]

Dan also can blocking or holding some offers for several days on your domains. This is 100% true it was in 2021.
I do not trust this platform anymore.

 

[Naming]

This platform is created mostly for money laundering exchange crypto to usd etc.. Thats why it was sold by Reza.

Good afternoon @Maxxo
Your user experience is insightful, but we have no plans to change that customization at this time.

Best regards,
Dan.com

Too bad. I guess it's possible to use ad blocker like AdGuard extension to hide undesired columns from being displayed in the domains for sale view. So I'll try that instead.

Good afternoon @doofer,
We pride ourselves on fast sales closing. If you want to check in on your transaction status, we're ready to help you at https://dan.com/contact

Best regards,
Dan.com

A couple of days short of one month and still counting. Probably we have different understanding about the meaning of 'fast closing sales'. Exactly what dan was doing better than afternic and godaddy, now it's way worse than they were, if it's even possible something like this.

@LaszloSchenk DAN has done a nice job adding new bulk domain pricing tools for sellers. How about adding a feature where we can set minimum offer to be X% of our set BIN price? For example, we could update all checked items in domain list to be minimum offer = 25% of the BIN price. Great way for sellers to test different strategies to maximize their closing rate/sales for their particular domain portfolio.

What do you think of this idea? Thanks

@DAN.COM your UI is so havy impossible to use your website on mobile. Absolutely awful.

@LaszloSchenk I see there it a large notice at top of DAN website saying you're closed for Martin Luther King day. Is DAN now mostly operated by USA (Godaddy) based workers? What percentage of the DAN employees are still based in Europe?

Good afternoon @Maxxo,
Like many global platforms, we have employees in multiple countries, and we have done so for quite some time. Due to MLK day, we can confirm that we won't be offering phone support between 5 pm and 11 pm CET today.

[DomainRecap]

I have been testing my Dan domains from time to time and I have noticed that some are being added to Avast and blocked under URL: Blacklist. So instead of loading the Dan lander it blocks it entirely.

@DAN.COM

These are all domains I've owned for years and have only forwarded to Dan.

Is this some bad actor/angry buyer emailing Avast about my domains or is this happening due to using Dan nameservers that also serve zero-click ads or similar and Avast using a blanket method of blocking them?

Either way it's getting more and more prevalent and it can only have a negative effect on sales. Worst of all, there is no way to know which ones are blocked unless you manually go through your entire portfolio.

If anyone has the same problem, go here and report the domain block as a false-positive. I've been doing that lately and they all get cleared up, but more seem to get added.

Anyone else getting next to zero traffic on Dan !?

If you don't forward your traffic for Dan you probably won't get any inherent buyer traffic and the only marketplace that would is GoDaddy.

If you are forwarding to Dan, then you might want to check to see of your domains are now on the virus checker blacklists at Avast, AVG, McAfee, etc.

Have you contacted DAN's support with some examples?

Nope, I'm spending more time correcting my domains with Avast and waiting for a response to my question posted above.

I did look at the generic IP for DAN and found it was blacklisted on a few DNS sites, mostly due to a perceived lack of security on the mail side.

Ok, I hope you get a response from @DAN.COM on this thread

Hi,
Can i use marketplace funds for another domain buys?
Scenario :
I sold my domain on Dan, funds added to my Dan account no need withdrawal.
I bought another domain from another user with my marketplace funds.

Got a reply. Thanks.

Good afternoon @USA,
We don't offer that service. In order for domain name sales to close, Dan.com needs to send you the funds.

Bitpay ID verification process does not work and the support team does not help in any way. All they do is copy and paste answers like robots.

I don't understand why you insist on working with these clowns.
