I wonder how many bidders don't realize what they're bidding on

plus Flippa.com

I heard Flippa and Sedo are going to merge and the new brand will be called sucka.com

The auction marketplace for all your fake domain needs.

People will do anything for a few dollars.

Where I gave call you ignorant?
I am responsible for what I write, not for what you understand.
And I did not write that you are ignorant, I wrote that those not working in this industry is ignorant.
As I am. for example, for the chemical industry.

"I am responsible for what I write, not for what you understand" = Classic! Nice one

As there is not yet a "fake domain posing as a real domain" section on NP this pile of garbage should be hidden away in the not a real IDN discussion section, should not be given publicity !

OK sorry for asking this but unless you punch in XN--E1A6A7B.COM how else would you get to that domain.

Where is @KINGOF.TOP when I need him, he is the expert on this?

It's called mixed script. Using letters/characters from different languages to create what looks like a real English language word and there is only one reason and that is to try to fool people in to buying something that it is not. Exactly what is happening on Sedo right now.
Very doubful if the "lucky winner" will pay for it when the realize what they have got. Happened on Sedo quite a few times, and on NP's.

^ It says right there about it but you're probably on to something..

My grade 10 science teacher once told me that half the world is stupid and to assume you are dealing with that half until they prove you otherwise.

I like to use the word ignorant instead of stupid myself.

That said....

Do you really think somebody somewhere wont know what they are bidding on? They will see 5k and think what a bargain., just click a box and bid. Then the regrets will come and they will sit on pins and needles waiting for someone else to bid.

If u have IDN and you want to sell it . sedo is best place .

LOL or maybe Slippa or Sedopa...

Why not go adult and call it Filtha?

Sedo protected their ass for sure, seller maybe not so much.

Ok a couple of things... Sex.com, the actual one, is like the one of most expensive domain of all time, somewhere around the top ten at around $10m+. Anyone looking at sedo, will not be on the site through searching the actual domain, so they have seen it via sedo, so they must have some interest in domains. And the fact that they are about to pay $5k, they must have some level of interest in domains as $5k is to most a lot of money, so whilst I strongly believe there is a lot of stupid and / or ignorant people, you know you are not getting something worth millions for thousands.

The reality is, as crap as the name may be, it probably still has some value on the basis it looks like sex.com! So search engine advertising, banner adverts etc, where the "customer" clicks as opposed to types in, will do well. And the porn industry is big on banners, and something that looks like sex.com will for sure have a high click through rate. For someone in that industry, it will have value.

it sold for $4600

 

[omelet]

ridiculous. Non-English name.

You are about to bid on a domain name that contains special non-English characters (i.e. "ä","ö","ü","á","é", "í") and is anINTERNATIONALIZED DOMAIN (IDN). Technically the domain is: XN--E1A6A7B.COM

[Hootsifer]

^^^ Get keyboard language pack for computer and you can type it in, copy and paste the actual idn, type in puny code which is XN--XXXXXXX etc. It's a bit confusing.

this pile of garbage should be hidden away in the not a real IDN discussion section

Would you rather have a newbie spend thousands of dollars on this domain or raise awareness that it is an IDN? DomainGang did the right thing by publishing it. Calm your overeager horses.

Sedo has mentioned "You are about to bid on a domain name that contains special non-English characters (i.e. "ä","ö","ü","á","é", "í") and is anINTERNATIONALIZED DOMAIN (IDN). Technically the domain is: XN--E1A6A7B.COM" under the location where you can place your bid.

It reads like a tiny-printed Terms and Conditions checkbox that most click without reading. Add to that the money-blinders of excitement around owning sex.com and it's not good enough!

I just worry about the bidders who don't use English well....they will ignore that and place their bids. By the way, I don't know how to use with IDN, if someone give it to me free I will not take it for sure.

plus Flippa.com

I don't like flippa but .io and tech related domain do well there. while as .com , .de , ccTld and IDN do well on Sedo mainly because of German traffic .

 

[ikhub]

Thats mean of you op. Your title made me horny but the description made me lose interest.

That made me LOL!

Not for long because there are still suckers out there and commission counts.

That's one of many reasons I hate Sedo's money-hungry, greedy self.
