.EU sales not being reported

[binaryman]

I have heard of many .eu domains that have been sold but nowhere do I see them reported. I myself sold one through Sedo but they are not reporting it nor listing it in their Recent Sales Columm. Anyone now why?? I asked Sedo but get no response to that question.

Maybe it could because some of the people that are selling them/buying them are not entitled to legally own them perhaps ??

Do you have a list (with prices) of the ones you have seen sell that you could post ?

Eurid has to approve the sale and innitiate the transfer procedure so if it was illegal the sales would not have gone through.
I dont have a list but I know through my registrar and other sources that quite a number of sales have taken place. My sale is not being recorded on Sedo for some mysterious reason and none of the other sales are officially to be viewed anywhere. Sedo has not bothered to give me an explanation although I have sent them a few mails in this regard. All very strange.

So only Europeans are "technically" allowed to buy them in the resale market too ?

Was there any additional fees for your sale charged by eurid ?

Yes that is the link I received from Eurid. I had to click on YES to authorise the transfer and 2 days later the Whois details were changed to the new owners. There was no actual transferring of the domain to the new owners registrar by my registrar that I am aware of. Come to think of it I dont know how the actual domain actually came to be under the new owners control and with his registrar of choice. As far as I know that is all handled by Eurid itself and not my Registrar. All went smoothly,quickly and effortlessly simple.
