Kjel said:Kjel Holmberg here from SnapNames.com. Sorry to resurrect this post but I want to make sure that the correct info is out there. To clarify: It is NOT a requirement that potential Sellers in our live auction must transfer all of the names they submit to us for consideration. From the multiple thousands of domain submissions received we will in the end select only ~350 names for inclusion in the SnapNames Live Auction. At that point we will strongly encourage Sellers to transfer (which we will pay for) their name(s) to our registrar. If for whatever reason the Seller declines to transfer and their domain is subsequently sold, a handling fee will be assessed the Seller due to the manual work then required to ensure that the closed auction is promptly fulfilled. The issue we are trying to address with this policy is that other live domain auctions can sometimes take weeks or months to close if in fact they close at all; we want the process to be immediate for both Buyers and Sellers. If you have any questions please contact me directly: kjel@snapnames...

actually i agree. i'm gonna cancel the ones i submitted i think. a royal pain. mine are all at Moniker, if they think i'm gonna pay to transfer out to some crumby registrar they can forget it.
do they have any rep on here who can clear this up?
why they think they need to do this and no other major auctions do, is beyond me, especially when collectively they use the worst registrars on the planet themselves. its hilarious

dannbkk said:Wow I didnt realise they expect you to transfer over first, forget it, I mean how successful is this system? That's there way of securing the domain if incase you decide not to sell it after the bidding has began. Buggers :yell:
kjel
From the multiple thousands, yeah so one out of 1000 will not have to transfer, what a loud of bollucks

Nattydomain said:....OR Say no I wont push it (even though its in the auction) and pay $100 EXTRA to push it once its sold.
4.IF you push the domain and its NOT sold......wow you just wait 60 days and push it back...all the while you STILL have total control at their reg to do all your dns changes, privacy if you want it etc etc...
Guys really this is NO BIG DEAL
abcproductions said:who says it is $100 EXTRA to push if you decline to do it in advance? and why is it so much?
and you say NO BIG DEAL because no control is lost at this new registrar but it can be a problem for many of us with thousands of domains already spread over a few registrars. having one domain at a registrar not of my choosing can possibly lead to forgetting to transfer or renew. THIS IS A BIG DEAL. i have several now that i have picked up through snap that are at different registrars and it can become very cumbersome and inconvenient to keep track of this one over here...and that one over there...etc. snap (as well as the other domain auction companies) should make it as easy as possible for the domain owners. keeping our names at our current registrar(s) until they are sold is all we ask...and this is a reasonable request. if we have to wait longer for our payment, i'm sure most will understand and go along with it.
NOW...back to this $100 handling fee. where is this stated?
Carlton said:QUESTION: I'm submitting names with suggested reserve next to each name. But, the submission is not being accepted. How have others listed their names, i.e. in what format? I went ...
Domain.xxx $3000
Domain.xxx $3000
Domain.xxx $2500
But it's getting kicked back.
Thanks for advice.

Cheers and Merry Christmas :santa:
