Flippa Suspends Large Volume Seller

[DomainVP]

Let's discuss this...

I think we all know the bidding sham that goes on with Flippa. The fact that it was allowed to go on for so long is interesting. Any Flippa representative that see this can respond; but here it is.

This guy was selling .info domains for four to five figures. I've been up for 24 hours, so no long diatribe today... just posting what I saw.

Your thoughts?

Yeah, they banned/suspended a large number of more notable flippa members 5 or 6 months back. Flippa's way of saying that no one is safe lol. On a similar note, came by this site the other day...maybe better if i didn't include the link lol.

Shill bidding.
Getting friends and family to bid, to get the price up, in hopes some newbie will then bid and buy.

most "top" sellers unfortunately do the same thing. flippa knows this and lets this go on because they wont make money if there's no big ticket sales!!

these are also the scumbags that ruin this industry.
