Just received this email from Dan.com about commission increases (snippet of email):
Thoughts?

Yes. The new structure will be a flat 15% or 25% depending on where nameservers are pointed at the time of sale, regardless of price.
This move has ruined Dan.com
Yes. The new structure will be a flat 15% or 25% depending on where nameservers are pointed at the time of sale, regardless of price.
But efty is $432 per year (every year) for the "up to 1500 names" plan, and higher still for larger portfolios. Seems kinda high to me, no?I wonder if sellers who use Efty landing pages that use Dan for check out will still only be charged 5% or 25%?
If 5%, I think Efty could have a great year.

Actually, the Afternic decreased from 20% to 15%.So
- You increased Dan commission to 15%
- You increased Afternic commission to flat 15%
- You increased Afternic commission for non-Godaddy landers to 25%
Wow good job in screwing up the whole domainers community
Not really. Look at domains over $25K.Actually, the Afternic decreased from 20% to 15%.
I agree, and BB toBut now there is 25% penalty at Afternic if you do that lol
Bad news for SH users.

You're linking to old page, I'm talking about what takes affect Feb 1. Email says:Not really. Look at domains over $25K.

It was $4,000 +10% of amount over $25k.
Now it's a flat $15, even for a $100K sale... oops
(At Escrow.com it's 0.89% of amount over $25K. Even the 1.78% of concierge service makes sense).
