Problems, Bugs and Fixes at Afternic - Report Problems Here

[carob]

I suggest a new thread titled Problems, Bugs and Fixes at Afternic - Report Problems Here. Then we can all list our issues so Afternic have to fix them. These Afternic probs have been repeatedly flagged up across numerous threads on here over a period of time, including the need for 2FA. Godaddy own Afternic and have the resources and motivation to fix it - this risky mess is unacceptable and reflects badly on their brand.

For info, Afternic keep reverting some of my domains to "In Review" status for no reason, and I only know that if I log in there to check on them. Until I then ask support to take them out of Review they are not listed for sale and will not sell at Afternic.

@Joe Styler When can we expect Godaddy to take action on Afternic, including implementing 2FA?

Maybe not the right thread, but I wanted to throw a positive shout out to Erik at Afternic. He brokered a domain last week for me. My asking price was 2488, a price I felt was already pretty aggressive. Buyer offered $1500
I told Eric I needed to NET $1500 which means at least $1875ish.

Eric closed it for me at $2248 and I netted almost 1800

Good job Afternic!

@Joe Styler Today - The Afternic website is working as expected again. The proxy error is gone, CSV portfolio uploads and manual domain removals are all working fine today. The manual domain deletions that did not work before have been processed by Afternic with a huuuuge delay.

Thanks. It was not only Saturday, I've experienced problems from Thursday-Saturday/Sunday. Glad that it's working again.

We are using Klarna for the pay over time option

It's a nice addition for Afternic BIN landers. But I don't see Klarna mentioned for the same domains while searching on Godaddy.com. It'd be great to see Klarna mentioned there as well, I think?

Well, I have something nice to say about you, wow. Still upset what happened to @Arca people can see his last posts if you view his profile.
Praise.
I went to afternic.com/domain/(domain name) and the name was camel cased. Beautiful.
Maybe its been like that a while, I dont know. Only issue is it doesn't say godaddy
Nice it has a number to call and shows your minimum offer so people dont have to guess it
Your ns5 ns6 are not camel cased or ns3 and 4 not that i see anyways. but this page is, so I will be forwarding some names to the afternic.com/domain/ page.
Nice improvement
Also impressed with response time when i emailed service@ reagrding a pending name
Not feeling what displays in tab. sell domains / buy domains / park domains
When adding afternic.com/domain/ name to social media the thumbnail image displays those words.
Tab words changed to This Domain is For Sale would sure be nice or Buy This Domain Today
example place cursor over this namepros tab at top of page

Impossible to get a payment on Afternic around 2 weeks. Support not responding.

 

[BrandingGo]

What is going on with the payment methods? So many fields related to my bank account are gone and now there is some weird "good as gold" (what does this even mean??) and only intermediary bank details available...

Where are you from? I have the same issue. tried to change the payout from paypal to bank. Only goodasgold and hold available for me.

How to link a Godaddy account to existing Afternic account @Joe Styler

Go to afternic.com, click on either Log In options at upper left beneath the Afternic logo, or upper right click on My Account, Login, then Login with GoDaddy.

Either option gives you the choice of logging in with your GD credentials or your AN credentials.

Why on the main page of afternic i see always the same image of same domains displayed as a premium !!?

They are almost the same domains i see them from long time !! Are they belong to afternic themselves or there is a paid service to keep them shown on main page like this ..!??

IMO it should be a collection of random premium domains displayed and rotating all the times to give fair chances for all premium domains sellers their domains to be shown .

BTW some of the displayed are ugly !!

Good as Gold is an account credit

I have got an official answer regarding goodasgold on Afternic

 

[BrandingGo]

I have delisted all domains on Afternic...

Because i have sold a domain, transfer complete, but I can not get the funds. Neither as Goodasgold.

@Joe Styler
I am seeing some pricing issues with prices listed at afternic vs price showing at godaddy.
The minimum offer for all names listed at afternic is way higher, when you search the name at godaddy or godaddy auction. My minimum offer is $199 and it shows as $1812 at godaddy.

Bostonfall+com as an example
https://auctions.godaddy.com/trpItemListing.aspx?src=dpp&miid=381406132&itc=dpp_absol1
https://www.afternic.com/domain/bostonfall.com
It shows minimum 1500$ at afternic but at Godaddy its $1754
If i am looking for $199 offers i dont want someone going to godaddy and searching my name and seeing minimum offer $1812
Can that be fixed? Or do i need to sign up and price them all at godaddy auctions?
I see bostonfall is $3103.85 at name.com netsol is $2699

Took my test name, was 3488 bin 199 offer, showing $3488 bin but $1812 at godaddy as minimum offer. Lowered price at afternic to bin $149 min offer $99
at godaddy it showed bin $149 offer minimum $84
Raised price afternic to $399 bin and min offer $99 and
it shows bin $399 but min offer is raised to $259 at godaddy

People, even bots should take a look see what their minimum offer is showing up as on godaddy

I see a .org is listed at afternic bin 3788 min offer 700
at godaddy it shows 3788 and min offer 2462

I have the same problem. Do we absolutely need to re-list them directly on GoDaddy Auctions (with TXT record) to apply the good amounts?

Some news about this thread @MasterOfMyDomains?

[DomainRecap]

Because i have sold a domain, transfer complete, but I can not get the funds. Neither as Goodasgold.

I haven't dealt with Afternic in a while, but last week I had a broker contact me with a nice offer, which we negotiated into a sale. Everything was rush, rush, rush, with constant emails and updates, and the domain was transferred.... then silence of the lambs.

No emails, no updates, no nothing. I realize it was a long weekend, but everything has gone from high-gear to no-gear once they had the money and the domain.

I go to my Afternic account today and it's the same shit as last week - "Payment - Not Scheduled".
