question What happened to Godaddy auctions?

[Denismth]

I am seeing many sales from Godaddy auctions in Namebio reposrts. But I couldn't access my own listing. I even paid for 3 yrs of auctions membership.
Have I missed any notification.

Those are 100% expired auctions and sometimes a quarterly non-expired auctions event.

Thank you very much. Haven't seen this.

I asked Chatgpt to tell me in short. And here is the main idea:
GoDaddy Auctions is shifting its focus to expired domain auctions and has stopped allowing users to list domains directly through Member-to-Member options. Sellers are now encouraged to use Afternic instead.


They’ve also improved the platform’s search features and raised the starting bid for expired domains from $12 to $25. GoDaddy is cracking down on fake bidding and non-payment to keep auctions fair.

But then what did they do with the money I paid for 3 yrs of auctions membership??

So that is auctions of expired domains. I donow where I was and missed these changes.
Of course I do have a dayjob as a pharmacist but I check my emails every day. Thanks
