Sedo New Fees !!! (Don't sell your domain for less than $200 on Sedo)

[Sameh]

Last domain i sold on Sedo was for $260 and Sedo's Commission ( %10 ) was $26

Today another domain sold for $120 but this time Sedo's Commission is $50 !!

I ran to Sedo fees page and i found their fees still "10% of the sales price" but with new update [ minimum 50€ / 35£ / 50$ ]

This mean if someone sold his domain on Sedo for $60 he will receive $10

Are they kidding or what :td:

 

[Makis.TV]

for me its even more bizzare the same amount for $ and euro
50 euros are almost $65

 

[amosba]

I've been under the impression that that has always been Sedo's fees - 10% with a minimum of $50, but the $50 doesn't apply if the domain is parked at Sedo.

 

[owntype]

Sedo fee to Parking domain is 10%, otherwise, from $50.

Were your domain names in any of these categories ? The fees varies for each of them.

.com/.net/.org/.co.uk/.org.uk/.me.uk****/
.info/.biz/.us/.tv/.li/.be/.st/.dk/.de/.at/.ch/
.name/.ws/.mx/.in/.cc/.to/.eu/.mobi/.nl 10% of the sales price
[ minimum 50€ / 35£ / 50$¹ ]


.fr/.es/.ca/.se/.pl/.com.ar 10% of the sales price
[ minimum 100€ / 70£ / 100$ ]


other domains 10% of the sales price
[ minimum 150€ / 105£ / 150$ ]

Your domain was parked at sedo or not?

 

[mis_chiff]

Were they both pointing to sedo?

I still haven't figured out why .ca is not included in
the 10% category, beside some of those other
ccTLD's?

Does the "parking at sedo" option work on these as well?
or straight flat rate?

What if your DNS settings look like

NS1.pointedelsewhere.com
NS2.pointedelsewhere.com
NS1.sedoparking.com
NS2.sedoparking.com

I still have nameservers pointed towards sedo, even though the "primary" points towards another service. How would this be looked at?

Does the fees vary if it's parked or not ? That's new news to me.

 

[neroux]

Actually one shouldnt sell it for less than $500 or €500, because then the 10% fee really starts to apply.

Generally however I find the whole system ridiculous - not to mention the wrong exchange rate for Euros mentioned also by on!SPOT, actually $50 is almost almost $70.

--> there is nothing about parked domains fee.
Seems like 10% fee for parked domains is just on US-Page

I sent email to Sedo wondering about this new update if it's actually true or there is something wrong..

If this comes to be true .. so i think that Sedo would like to stop the "$60 auction sale" and low-price domains from selling there , they looking forward to clean their auctions list from this kind of sales.

 

[deleted984054565403]

This isn't anything new. Sedo's always given a flat 10% rate on domains parked at Sedo, and all other sites are 10%, minimum $50. Neroux is right in saying it's best not to sell under $500, whether it's parked or not. If the site or domain you sell is $500 or over, it doesn't matter if it's parked or not. I'll have to find where Sedo says this. I know it's true because I sold a domain for $500 early last year with a $50 fee, and a $70 domain recently for a $7 fee (it was parked).

Did you notice this

Last domain i sold on Sedo was for $260 and Sedo's Commission ( %10 ) was $26

Both domains were parked at Sedo .. so, how come ?

Like trying to cheat the spirit of the rule, I hope...

And as to the 10% / 50 minimum, it is on every fees page for Sedo - how is any of this new?

If the 50 waiver wasn't on the uk page then you would still have no room to complain as to their charging you 50 for the minimum amount... Does anyone take the time to read the terms anymore?

Domains must be parked at Sedo for at least one month to qualify for 10% fees with no minimum.

It may just be an error then...contact a Sedo rep to find out.

The parking vs. nonparking stipulation has always been there...
