about time.
that and nominets reduction to a tenner + vat will surely help low end sales increase.
the paperwork is still a pain to have to do through sedo, but i doubt we'll have that system forever either.
with the recent high profile high end .co.uk sales, i think .uk domains are due a well deserved price hike
:sold:

About bloomin' time too. Only reason I didn't put anything in there before was the extraordinarily high commission, over and above both the dollar and the euro entries making it very prohibitive.

Many thanks for bringing this to our attention here at NamePro's for the benefit of us UK domainers.

Excellent news.

Cheers mate.

Rep added.

The way I read it all of the ones listed, but the title does make it look like UK

No minimum commission for sales of parked domains

From 06. December 2007 Sedo will do away with the minimum sales commission of £35 for domains in Sedo’s first price category*

.....Blah blah Blah

...The first price category contains the following TLDs:
.de/.com/.net/.org/.co.uk/.org.uk/.me.uk/.info/.biz/.at/.ch/.be/.st/
.li/.us/.dk/.name/.tv/.ws/.mx/.in/.cc/.to/.eu/.mobi/.nl/.es

...cool

The thing is you 'have to' park your domains at Sedo, Sedo parking = c**p payments! Remember they only even give their c**p payment for the first click through! They pocket each and every cent/penny made by a second or subsequent click through.

So unless your site has very few visitors and 'really' stands a chance of being picked out you are likely to be worse off by parking at Sedo. And of course there is this threatened claim in the courts against Sedo - where do you think they are going to get the money to cover that from?
