So now you’re ready to acquire one of our domains, and this
article will tell you how to buy your selected name from us (via Go Daddy).
We like Go Daddy because it’s
trustworthy, dedicated to making the transfer of domains safe, easy, fluid, and
fast. The auction staff works diligently at protecting both seller and buyer
from fraud, which, unfortunately, is a part of the domain sales business.
Your financial details will be safe
with Go Daddy – check it out yourself, if you are not sure. Since 2007, when we
first signed up with Go Daddy, we have not had a problem with security
regarding our financial information.
So we have placed most of our domains
on the Go Daddy auction site. In this context, “auction” is a bit of a misnomer
because as an opening negotiation we are not actually “auctioning” off our
names.
Select domains with opening bids will go to auction, but we have opted to place our domains without
bids on the offer/counteroffer platform.
The domain name market is forever
changing, both upward and downward, and the offer/counteroffer option allows
our company flexibility in pricing.
Most of our domains on the Go Daddy
sales site are registered at Go Daddy, so verification of ownership can be
easily established.
For buyers, the best news: the seller (us!) assumes all commission fees.
The only fee the buyer pays is $4.95 for a Go Daddy auction membership, good for
one year.
Basic steps for purchasing one of our
domains (via Go Daddy):
– On the sale posting,
each domain offered for sale offers its own dedicated listing link. Click on
this link, and you will go directly to the listing.
– If the link doesn’t
work, go to the Go Daddy auction site, and,
in the search box, type in the domain you wish to purchase, for example, Zequin.com. If you get an error message
that says “No keyword provided,” simply re-enter the name. The exact-match
listing will be highlighted by a yellow strip.
– Once you reach the
listing, place your offer!
– If you are not logged
on, you will be prompted to do so.
– Once you place your
offer, we will be emailed, letting us know that an offer has been made.
– We will respond in one
of three ways:
* Accept your offer
outright, OR
* Send the domain to a
7-day auction (most likely), OR
* Counteroffer
– If we accept, Go Daddy
will email you with payment details and instructions.
– Follow Go Daddy’s
instructions for submitting payment.
– Once payment has
cleared, Go Daddy will let us know when to commence transfer to you. We will
NOT receive payment until Go Daddy verifies completed transfer.
