I can see a number of these getting picked up - there a few others I'm surprised they accepted the high reserve and can't see selling because of it. What do you think?

I've been having very little success on the drops lately.

MyId seems to be the big winner all around.

Personally I am thinking of drafting a letter to cira that would limit companies like this from snapping up all the choice drops.

To make the system truly fair they have got to limit data base hits by one company/ip address etc.

Hmmm.... I think it’s quite a bit different than posting Super Bowl predictions after the game.

Not really and it's exactly the same as any time sensitive information - who the heck would read it after the event has ended?

My problem with many of these "TBR Registrars who *also* run a Marketplace" is that they are NOT supposed to be buying for resale, only for customers orders, but a lot of their "wins" miraculously appear in their aftermarket listings, many with the same WHOIS. They also have a lot of listings on Flippa and other auction sites.

https://www.myid.ca/domainmarket/

If you want to advise the CIRA of something, do it this way, as Registrars are expressly forbidden to use the TBR drop as a method of building up investment domains.

No love but didn't try...

It was a pretty weak week, but there were a few nice options in there - surprised to get 1 of my 3 with 136 names taken.

Fun Fact: One of our Top Picks (Titillate.ca) went exactly last in 136th spot. :xf.frown:

Yep, that was the other one I lost, but I had BMS.ca first, and MOMS.ca second.

cira is very responsive this hasn’t been going on for years, why have they turned a blind eye to this?

I personally think myid should be investigated, they often catch the top drops and nobody else has a chance. You then think.... ahh someone from their marketplace but they do own a lot of those dropped domains directly.

Even if we complain they will just register the picked up domain in a different name so we cannot really win.

I think there should be a web interface where anyone registered with cira can go to and submit their desire for the dropping domain. A computer at cira's end should then make a random pick as to who gets it, basically like a lottery.

I don't understand why a system that is supposed to be for all Canadians can be dominated by a few companies. It is up to us to be vocal and tell cira how we feel so we can get this changed.

One last thing.....

Currently we have to go through a registrar to get a dropping domain. How long do you think before most registrars do what godaddy does and hog them for themselves? They just give the domain to a made up end user to hide this fact.

PS.... anyone heard of tucows/hover :xf.wink:
So much irregular stuff going on with expiring domains.

I'm at the point where any .com domain I let expire if it sits at go daddy I will give it away for free so it does not hit their expiring auction. Why should they automatically be allowed to profit from me?

Cira has issues and so do any registrars that run auctions, in my humble opinion you should not be allowed to do both.

I’ve noticed that a few excellent names that myid won a few months ago and went to auction still isn’t resolving to any site which makes me thing something is a little fishy there. I mean if I won a 2 letter .ca months ago, I would want something on there. And not just one name I know of a couple for sure.

Yeah, remember CP.CA that sold for God knows how much? Still not resolving.

Makes you wonder about these "auctions".

I don’t recall the CP one but that’s another example. YO and YR are the same. Not resolving. I can’t imagine all these buyers backed out of the auction and didn’t pay. If that was the case, I’m sure myid would either re-auction it or sell to the next top bidder.

I won 1, but in auction for a couple more.

Does anyone know of anyone who has actually won an LL.ca MyID domain auction?

I know lots who bid, and during the CP.ca madness, there was a lot of activity, and later a lot of curiosity who won. Seems pretty strange.

Excellent idea MapleDots. I just clicked that link and some .ca names were mentioned that I missed. It also brings up your personal messages as well which I like.

Maybe Namepros should consider having a dedicated .ca forum as .ca’s are growing quite quickly and there are a number of us Canadians here on Namepros.
