...then they share the sale with you?
that's a good one.
Just send your names to auction yourself before they expire. Personally I use NameLiquidate and DropCatch.
Is there a registrar where when your domain expires they send it to godaddy as an expired auction and then they share the sale with you?
The problem I've noticed is there seems to be this "understanding" or "logic" or "stigma" that domainers never buy from domainers.
it's either domainers simply don't want to give money to another domainer and let them get ahead or they rather deal with a registrar that has "essentially stolen" a domain that's been renewed for years and unfortunately has expired.
I've seen some very nice external domain auctions being promoted on here and tracked them. 9 times outta 10 I don't see any difference. no increase.
The same domains I've tracked. ended up expired. and wouldn't you know it? They got a ton of bids at expired and then ended up selling for $x,xxx.
it's crazy!
If I was the old registrant I'd probably throw myself off a bridge.
I really do believe that expired auctions might as well be called "domains not owned by domainers and owned by registrar" auctions.
the first part is more important than the last.
The label of "expired" has simply made it easy for a domain investor to distinguish domainer owned domains from registrar owned domains.
why is it like this?
If I tried to sell any of my domains on Namepros auction with starting bid $1 with no reserve or on Flippa same way. It would be like putting teeth and nose hairs just to get bids.
It's as if those auctions get ignored and all the air in the room gets sucked into the expired domain auction room.
I mean these auction sites even have a nice tickbox or filter button to filter out expired auctions. It's a bit unfair to Private sellers.
yet somehow we own these platforms 20% if and when we sell our domains on their site?
The "system" really is designed to profit from the research of domain registrants.
It is designed to relieve domainers of their "treasure" and profit from it.
not only that. It is designed to PREVENT or at the very least make it very difficult or near impossible to sell a domain for what it's worth market value.
plus the "system" is designed to make sure your only shot is to promote your domain in all the obvious "avenues" so essentially you are not just promoting YOUR DOMAIN AUCTION but THEIR domain auction platform as when you promote a link like below.

Only partially true, @WhoaDomain.com. I've also noted I'm able to pick up very good names at ridiculously low prices on here and one or two other places.The problem I've noticed is there seems to be this "understanding" or "logic" or "stigma" that domainers never buy from domainers.
