gTLD My first sale @ Uniregistry

[Michael Ehrhardt]

Here is the weird story about Wasserstoff.Energy

i registered the domains Wasserstoff.Energy & ( Wasserstoff.Global ) 2 years ago
than I missed it to renew them both

they were listed @ Uni and I got 2 offers of 500.-$ each
next day Wasserstoff.Energy was sold for 2.789.- and the funds secured

I checked the domain and it was listed @ Sedo for 3.400.-
so I made an offer of 149.- ( 340.- ) and so on

back and forth I got the domain back for 600.-€ and provided the auth code directly to Uni

profit : 1.200.-€

Wasserstoff means hydrogen

still not a big deal but a little cash for holiday

You must have found out 1 day before the domain sale, when you received an offer, that you do not own the domain names.

So, what did you think or do, after you got the offer? (Before the sale)

As we know, what you did after the sale...

i didn’t react to the offer

the domain was listed to get offer and buy it now

 

[VaibhavA]

i didn’t react to the offer

I was thinking what I would have done, maybe I would have reacted and deleted the listing on UNI.

Good for you, you didnt. You got lucky the next day.

Congratulations. And interesting timeline of events.

Smart! Kudos! Congrats!
Under the given situation, most of us would've been confused.

It’s always good to check your domains

also it’s always good to check the domain you wanna buy directly

 

[kartikahuja]

Awesome! Congratulations for the sale

Usually Uniregistry delete Domains you dont own

Like Afternic, they don't delete anything.
Tons of obsolete listings there, even available for regfee.

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

So you sold the domain on Uniregistry before you bought it back on Sedo?

Yes
Luckily I got it back

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

You sold a domain you did not own? Not cool if you ask me......

Edit

You agreed to sell a domain you did not own - still not cool

You don’t understand!

‘I missed to renew it
It was still listed for sale

still there is a Happy End on my side

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

Ah OK - so they where in the expiration stage?

It was already with another owner
So I just bought it back

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

So you agreed to sell a domain to someone even though you did not own it?

I was right in my first post, there was no misunderstanding - what you have done is wrong and your bragging about it......you clearly don't get this so I'm out of this thread

Read my post

i registered the domains 2 years ago
I missed to renew them
So they expired
They were my domains in the first place

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

More like he forgot to delist the name from Uni after the name expired. Name got sold regardless at Uni.

What I see wrong here is the failure to delist. What if the new owner wasn't a domainer or the name was already developed or was registered but not resolving? Then, it was likely he would have jeopardised his account with Uni since it would have been seen as a false listing.

Most marketplaces have this issue. I know how time consuming it can be to delist old listings on Afternic before being able to list under your own account. I know Sedo tries to clean up the inventory on their website once in a while. But, I wish more was done about it.

absolutely

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

I'm going to put this is plain English and move on.....

They expired and someone else owned them.......

"I checked the domain and it was listed @ Sedo for 3.400.-
so I made an offer of 149.- ( 340.- ) and so on"

Before or while doing the above you accepted an offer on the domain via Uniregistry..... even though someone else owned it.....

It does not matter if you previously owned them, you where not the current owner....

Try and justify it all you want, you agreed to sell a domain that you did not currently own......that is what happened.....

you still don’t understand

it was a buy it now !

I didn’t negotiate

the 500.-$ offer wasn’t the buyer

btw : English is a west Germanic language

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

So … who is Chan Mingyu ?

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

A form of front running I guess.

Front Running ?

sounds interesting

whats that ?

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

Usually Uniregistry delete Domains you dont own

The Same at Sedo

 

[D Haynes]

Front Running ?

sounds interesting

whats that ?

When someone sells or attempts to sell a domain they don't own, then buys the domain from a third party to complete the sale.

Could view it as unauthorised brokering in a way.

Got payment really quick

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

Just because you owned the domain before, it doesn't give you the right to sell it. You got lucky because you were able to buy it back.

yes

like I wrote clearly :

i forgot to renew it
I missed to delist it
so it was sold

luck is on my side

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

to make something clear here :

my day job is to take care about old and sick people
I work 330 hours a month and make my money
domaining is just a side income

this deal was strange and lucky for me

there is a lot to learn about it !

that's the reason why I posted this thread



this is how business goes

It doesnt matter

if you have a Chance to make Business Go for it
