Okay, so I am going to go catching..

[Ringr]

Hey Guys,

I have never "drop catched" a domain before. Namely because I had no idea how on earth it worked. For the last few weeks I have been asking others about the process and I think I got a good handle on how it works now.

I was thinking about using ClubDrop.com by Enom, because according to many people - it's for one cheaper and there is no 'private bidding' (or something like that); unlike Pool which costs $60* per name and has this private stuff which many claimed wasted their time.

Has anyone else used Club Drop? I know it is $10* to start with plus a registration fee (am I correct that the lowest price of a drop at Club Drop would be about $18?).

Is there anything else I should know before I do this, or does anyone have any recommendations?

Please help me out in this,
Andy

wow that sounds really weird, are you sure it won't let you refill for less then $100? or maybe you read it wrong? Cause i meen... $100 is awfully high.....

Here is what enom says:

Note: 3% of the total amount refilled will be deducted from your balance as a "Refill Convenience Charge". (Ex. $100 will result in 97 eNom Points net deposit into your account). There is a 3% discount for checks, wires and cash orders sent directly ($100 will result in 100 eNom Points refill if cash, wire or check is sent directly, not via this web site). See instructions below for details

Checks should be mailed to:
eNom, Inc.
Dept CH 10779
Palatine, IL 60055-0779

For overnight mail, send checks to:
eNom, Inc.
10779
5505 N. Cumberland Avenue
Suite 307
Chicago, IL 60656-1471

There are no minimum amounts for check refills.
IMPORTANT! Each check MUST have the Login ID in the memo field and what it is for (ex. account refill).

NOTE: Our bank may impose a 30-day delay on checks received in a foreign currency. Please plan on this delay as your funds will not be posted to your account until the bank releases your money to eNom.

Meh, I am so confused - and I know there is no way I am going to send a check there in 4 days. Damn, why can't they just do things s i m p l e and let me pay with the $18.95 that I do have? I ain't got a hundred friggen dollars to deposit just to make them happy.

Enom reseller account have always required funding in $100 increments. Only retail accounts are pay as you go.

 

[Ringr]

Rather than refilling my account,

could I put in my Credit Card number and stuff in here:

and then would they bill the $18.95 on the CC info itself, rather than this silly increment stuff?

 

[Tippy]

I had the same thing happen to me, caught a name with my Reseller account and then relized I had to fill it or send a cheque to pay, entering the cc info on my reseller account wasnt enough.

To make a long story short I fought back and forth with them on this subject but it was a no go, I now use a retail account for Club Drop.

Failure to pay could get you kicked out of the Club Drop scene.

Damn, now I am really in a bug. Theres no way a check is going there in 4 days; and I don't have $100 to pleasure them. If they don't want to do anything simple, it's their fault - not mine. Jesus Christ, if only they could make it more fricken complicated than it alread is.

 

[Tippy]

Just contact them and tell them they will receive the check asap
