TDNAM - Waiting for buyer

[Chappy]

I had a sale on TDNAM - which went to Escrow as its over the limit. But the buyer has not signed in or accepted terms. It's been over 5 days now. I called TDNAM and they said a transaction can take up to 30 days. Sounds weird to me.

Anyone else experience this? What a let down!

I could be wrong but the winning bidder is not under contract to actually pay for the domain so it could have just been a false bid.

again, I could be wrong.

I'm a little confused because I bought a name, paid for it immediately when sale ended, then was told it would be 14-15 day before it was available to me.

The support staff is right .... you will get the money after 30 days... I had same concern when I had my first domain sale. The buyer paid after 5-6 days. After buyer pays money it takes 30 days before seller gets the money.

If buyer was fooling around the GD will blacklist that user and he will not be able to bid again.

Surprising it takes so long at TDNAM. I have never sold anything there but it is making me think twice about future sales that I may have on the site. Has anyone scored a xxx or x,xxx sale on TDNAM? I see most sales going for low to mid xx most of the time.

Are you sure the 30 day thing applies to transactions that go through Escrow.com? I read somewhere else that TDNAM sends the transaction to Escrow.com and then their part is done.

I never had transaction on Escrow.com... Sorry I missed that part. I took the "Escrow" word literally.

But going by TDNAM policies I wont be surprized if it took long.

If they don't pay up within a few days I consider it childs play. All of my real buyers paid up within 24 hours. If not it never closed at all, there anyway. And yes they say they disperse funds within 30 days but it actually turns out to be 35-40. Apparently it takes paypal 5-10 days to post the payment from what TDNAM support says.

You most likely won't score a big sale but most of my sales have been in the $xxx range.

sold a domain there, but have not received money yet. I would not believe paypal will take 5-10 days, it should a instant transfer. The reason it takes long time because the buyer wants to make sure that the domain is transfered because transfering a domain from one registrar to another usually takes 5-10 days.

A buyer used the BIN option on one of my listings @ TDNAM. I had to wait 40 days before TDNAM told be the buyer was bogus and they will just give him a warning etc. I just don't like the setup there and will neither buy nor sell with them unless they re-vamp.
