Wild west inter-reseller push? Wild west -> GoDaddy Transfer?

[edwinfelix]

Did anyone have any experience with wild west inter-reseller push?
Is it allowed and is it easy?

And if a domain is to have a Wild west -> GoDaddy Transfer, does the fact that they are the same company make the transfer much easier?

Thanks.

Transfers = Same as transferring to any other registrar, no easier.
Pushes = Not allowed inter-wwd-gd, only intra-gd or intra-wwd

Thanks, how about intra-wwd but inter-wwd reseller?

Can transfer, but can't free-"push" (Transfer requires a fee plus 1 year extension, basically you're renewing the domain at the new WWD reseller).

Thanks. Much appreciated.

Do you by any change know what would happen to the domains of a WWD reseller should it go out of business?

 

[IAmAllanShore]

Not from experience or first hand knowledge, but "go out of business" is somewhat of a misnomer, methinks...
I'd assume if the reseller ceases to exist, GD would take over the accounts, or keep the reseller name/faceplate alive indef on their own.
