June 18, 2019 by Raymond Hackney 4 Comments

You don’t see this everyday, an expired auction where only two bidders participate and go back and forth for over 400 bids and a $61,000 closing price. That’s what just finished on GoDaddy auctions for ShopeeMall.com. A name registered in 2016 at PublicDomainRegistry. Owned by a company called MicroOrange Technologies. The name certainly does not […]

Finally GoDaddy auctions to have bidder id’s, do you feel better?

April 10, 2019 by Raymond Hackney 5 Comments

After asking for bidder id’s on Namepros as far back as 2015 and I kept pushing a bunch of times on Namepros and here at TLDinvestors.com, bidder id’s are finally a reality. Now of course you never fully get what you want from GoDaddy. In my opinion that’s always what you get from GoDaddy just […]

Shill bidding, insider information? Maybe it’s time for those bidder id’s

March 28, 2019 by Raymond Hackney 3 Comments

Back in 2017 I wrote that it was time for GoDaddy to initiate bidder id’s. GoDaddy has been against this and Joe Styler has posted on Namepros in the past that they will not do that. We also wrote a post when Paul Nicks stated no plans to add them. Tonight Paul Nicks published a […]

Some less than stellar prices on a block of LLL.coms today

March 7, 2019 by Raymond Hackney 3 Comments

You usually don’t see so many 3L.coms close on the same day at GoDaddy. But today we had a group of 8 close at the same time and that might have pushed their pricing down a bit. UXQ.com closed at $11,000 as the low and XKF.com closed at $15,850 at the high. 7 of these […]

November 16, 2018 by Alvin Brown 2 Comments

Espresso.net closes at $10,001 in a battle between two bidders

August 15, 2018 by Raymond Hackney 2 Comments

As I mentioned earlier today I started tracking GoDaddy public auctions lately. I had another domainer ask why they didn’t seem to do as well as expired auctions.
