Received an offer. Need advice.

[gubera]

I received an offer on sedo for one of my domains. :D I picked up the domain at snapnames about a week ago so it can't be transferred for about another 50 days (end of August) Is this going to be a problem?

Should I ignore the offer and hope there will be another one once the domain can be transferred?

No it's not a problem at all .. you can push the domain to the buyer account for free.. all my Sedo sales were done by free push not transfer.

 

[gubera]

Wow! That was a fast answer! Thank you! How does a "push" work? How does it get around the 60 day rule?

It's not a trick. you will just move your domain to the buyer account on the same registrar.

I guess I'm about to start an auction on sedo! If all goes well this will be my first domain sale ever.

Good Luck

And use NamePros external-auctions to announce your auction.

hi gubera

Good Luck for your auction.

As eg.domains has said

1. "Push" the domain is transfering the domain name from one account to another account within the same registrar.
Here there is no 60 day rule. You can push once you register a name.

2. Transfering a domain means transfering from one account to another account with different registrars. Here the 60 day rule comes in effect.

Hope this helps. BTW i am a newbie just trying to figure out things :cy:

No! congrats what is the name?

To clarify, you can sell the name. The person who buys the name must keep it with the same registrar. For example, if the domain name is at godaddy, the new owner must get a godaddy account and keep the domain there until the 60 days are over. If the name is registered at moniker, the buyer needs a moniker account. If it's registered at fabulous, the buyer needs a fabulous account. Etc., etc., etc.

Some registrars make you keep the account there an additional 60 days if you make any changes. If you change the contact info at godaddy, the name needs to stay at godaddy an additional 60 days.

Typically the seller offers to set up an account for the buyer, and the registrar's tech support should be able to teach you how to do this.

I hope this makes sense, and good luck with the sale!
