opinion Urgent, my domain sold twice in two different platform

[Rich_Millionaire]

Hello domain expert,

Need your urgent help and views or suggestions.

Suddenly today I got a final warning from Afternic Escrow saying I need to transfer the domain Link***.com to Afternic Escrow . They need the auth code.

It turned out that all the email notification from afternic to my primary email at admin@premium**********.com not received. I am having problem with that email.

But since the AFternic team gave me final warning and forward to my secondary email at i*********@gmail.com, I managed to login and noticed that the domain Link***.com has been sold 1-2 weeks ago.

But before I managed to transfer the auth code today, suddenly the domain has been sold through Godaddy Premium Listing today.

But since the domain has been sold through Godaddy Premium Listing, the domain has been immediately removed from my godaddy dashboard, thus I can't get the auth code ( to be sent to Afternic escrow).

I have contacted with Godaddy team and they have discussed with the management what to do with the transaction. The support said the domain transfer to the Godaddy Premium Listing can't be put on hold .

But they will try to cancel the Godaddy Premium Listing transaction tomorrow because the office hours has closed..

But at the moment, I can't send the auth code because it is pending finalization.

Any suggestion what I need to do?

Thanks.

Naz

if I would be in that situation
and if I would be a rich millionaire..

I would just relax and not be bothered for the $899 USD too much
as they take away a big chunk for commission anyway
-maybe even twice???-
it's not worth your time

just wait what happens next

and take the domain off from sedo / undevelopped / efty / and whoknowswhere

This shouldn't be your problem at all as someone mentioned before you are dealing with the same company i.e. Afternic belongs to GoDaddy. This seems like more of a bug in their system then anything to do with you.

This is why you post buy it now price on one listing and make offer everywhere else. I hope the clusterfucks that are afternic and godaddy are married soon so the confusion can be put to rest.

hello Rich_Millionaire, im all excited to what had happened? please update us. thanks

 

[Rich_Millionaire]

I message the escrow service in my afternic dashboard and emailed to dnescrow@afternic, support@afternic and service@afterni regarding the issue.

All got no response.

They just went to easiest route.

They canceled the afternic sale with no response to my message in the afternic dashboard.

 

[weblord]

so all's resolved now? Are you happy with the outcome?

 

[Rich_Millionaire]

Not happy because:

1. Cancel the first sale, reward the second sale. Should be another way around.
2. Zero response

 

[weblord]

oh sorry to know that. well at least you get something.

Try to keep the prices the same across different platforms.

Double Congrats my friend...

Yes! I guessed it would happen this way it happened ; simply because everybody needs money.

All I can say now is to say sorry and just take heart! You just take it as one of your learning cove. But it is very unfortunate though the money involve is not to much but it means a lot.

Congrats on the sale. Stuff happens.

@Rich_Millionaire will get the least of two amount sold. Godaddy or Afternic (both same companies) do not share Seller information so you will not be knowing how much it was sold. Their "verdict" is final. It is futile to protest if they paid you less.

Just console yourself that both platforms are related and were able to handle it this way. It may have been worse if two major competitors were involved.

Congratulations anyway. Small is better than nothing
