So if I receive offer of $60 and want to sell the domain they will take me $50 or what?

Definitely need Sedo to clarify some things. If I have something listed for, let's say $495, and I receive and offer of $300 and counter with $400...what is the commission on that? It wasn't sold at the fixed price.

What about auction "pushes"? Will those now be useless for domains under $500?

They will take you 10% ($6) if the domain is parked with sedo, and $50 if it is not.

As I understand, you will be able to set fixed price less then $60 for domains parked with sedo.

That was from long time that if you had your domains parked at sedo, then you had no minimum comission... now I read there that You need to have fixed price set? So they will disable previous offer?

Yes, but you are still unable to place fixed price for domains under $60.

This sucks, and seems to be pretty stupid to me. And it could hurt not only the Seller but also Sedo. As far as I read this, the only way to sell a domain with a minimum $50 commission is to park it at Sedo and have a fixed price, with the latter being the new addon rule. So let's say you have a 'eh' domain. You want to sell it, and don't think you could get more then $200. So you list it for $200, and if it sells, Sedo takes $20. But let's say you had Make Offer, and you negotiated to $1000. Not only did the seller theoretically lose $800 in sale price, but Sedo lost $80 in commission.
