Offers start at ONLY $50/name!

 

[InvisionTech]

$55 for condos.pro

There should be an end time for auctions... 48-hour hold time doesn't make sense and if person isn't online to bid for the domain then too bad.

 

[d0main]

60 condos

 

[Ben42]

$200 Scuba.pro - akcampbell
$100 bass.pro - akcampbell
$56 parts.pro - InvisionTech
$60 condos.pro - D0main

I'll throw Some BIN out there:
$400 Scuba.pro
$300 Bass.pro
$300 Condos.pro
$200 Parts.pro
$150 Ethanol.pro

Or just say 1k and get all 5!

InvisionTech, I will add a solid end date for all auctions if this keeps going much longer.

 

[InvisionTech]

I will take scuba.pro for $400 bin price.

That wasn't fair. If you start an auction with a no further bids after 48 hours rule, you can't then introduce a BIN after people have started bidding. As the highest bidder, I'm thinking I can counterbid provided I check back every 1-2 days.

I can't get too upset about this, things cutting against you is part and parcel of buying and selling domains and I have enough .pros to last me until I'm 150. Please give Bass.pro to the next highest bidder, I'm withdrawing my $100 bid.

 

[Ipdster]

$75 bass.pro

Yes, I agree with Akcampbell. This is not good. I'm very upset....I got information about BIN now, because I'm not monitoring thread every hour


bass.pro - $80
parts.pro - $61

 

[Ben42]

Ya know, leave it to me to ruin an auction. I guess thats why they have professional auctioneers. I really thought those BIN's wouldn't be touched (Especially scuba at twice it's current bid). Please accept my appologies, I really wanted to give everyone a fair chance.

$80 bass.pro - MasterGuru
$61 parts.pro - MasterGuru
$60 condos.pro - D0main

BIN Prices:
$300 Bass.pro
$300 Condos.pro
$200 Parts.pro
$150 Ethanol.pro

 

[Ben42]

$80 bass.pro - MasterGuru (If no other bids ends at 6am Eastern Time Saturday)
$61 parts.pro - MasterGuru (If no other bids ends at 6am Eastern Time Saturday)
$60 condos.pro - D0main (If no other bids ends at 5pm Eastern Time Today)

*Ethanol.pro has no bids and is being pulled from the auction.*

Andrew,
Not two days ago, a Moniker inquiry on one of my Macau domains prompted me to do some very basic research on Bin prices. ie. What is a Bin price? I came across one particular article that fit the bill for me. However, in hindsight, the article also seemed to directly address your issue. I believe that you will find the article of interest, and am referencing it for this reason. Otherwise, I am not taking a position on this matter. http://www.websitesthatmakemoney.co...s/how-important-is-your-bin-price.php#more-95

MJS, these are the NP auction rules;

"2. Once an auction is posted you may reserve the right to end, or change your auction at any time... until a bid is placed. At that time, you are obligated to follow through with the auction "as is". Nothing can be added, or changed once a bid is placed.

This includes the BIN price (BIN = Buy It Now) - BIN prices cannot be added, changed, or removed once the first bid is placed.

If this rule is violated, the auction will be considered void, and the thread closed or deleted."

This is water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned.

I've been away from the board for the last few days. Nonetheless, thank you for the clarification.
