question Seller accepted my offer at Flippa, Now no response

[Mr.Mashari]

Hi everyone,

I have problem at Flippa, I make offer for the domain and seller accepted

3day no response, No payment sent, I sent him only a message about domain transfer

I'm just interested in this domain, What can I do !!

 

[TopShelf Domains]

Flippa sucks. I sold a website three times and three times no payment.

 

[FPForum]

Was it for Flippa Escrow? PayPal? Was there any payment method decided? submit a support request and they should be able to help out.

 

[Mr.Mashari]

He accepted my offer, nothing happen after.

No payment made.

I'm trying to contact him through (Post-Sale Discussion) and no response from him for 3 Days.

Was it an auction or a free listing?

You made an offer to buy his domain, he accepted that offer, and you haven't paid.

What payment are you waiting for? That's your bit?

 

[Mr.Mashari]

I ask him to transfer the domain out, waiting for his approval !!

The main issue here is that the seller isn't communicating with the buyer. If the seller was serious about selling this domain, he would try to come up with some payment arrangement and discuss the transfer. It's been 3 days and no response. This behavior by the seller tells me that he is backing out of the deal.

Unfortunately, I do not think that free listing deals are bound by the same terms as auctions.

Why would be transfer the domain out before you have paid, please explain to somebody who doesn't know much about flippa.

1) You make him an offer
2) He accepts the offer
3) ...... you pay
4) ...... he transfers domain

Missing out stage 3?

#3 - Pay how? Paypal? Escrow or what?

Doesn't the seller have to specify the payment method accepted when they create the classified listing? And isn't flippa escrow a default obligatory option?

So nothing preventing the OP from paying, he will already know how to pay, and will be able to do so without any communication by paying via flippa escrow. Presumably the seller will then be given the instruction to transfer.

No, this is a free listing, not an auction. The deal is done verbally via PM, not through bids.
