Sedo Transfer Problem

[crux]

Hi!

It's been a month since I bought a domain for a huge price.

After a long delay and some troubles transfering it, I was going to finnally start the transfer today, but it seems that domain is locked at the moment since buyer has made a recent change (last 9th april) on owner's contact information.

For security reasons and according to ICANN's policy I can only transfer it 60 days after last contact information's change.




So, at the moment all I have is: nothing.

I dont have my money.
I dont have my domain.

And after all this time I am loosing my interest in the domain.

How can this be solve?

Best Regards all.

i thought you would be legally covered by sedo in there T&C's?

Have you spoken to sedo.

As far as I know Sedo won't have paid money the seller until the name is registered under your details, I am pretty much sure that you should be covered money wise.

I haven't heard personally of anyone losing money through a sedo transfer although I maybe wrong.

)I havent loose money.

I will explain bette: At the moment I dont have neither money (its on sedo) neither the domain (its on seller)

After 1 month we start to get desperate

Hi Crux,

Could you please PM me the domain name?

It does often happen that we have to wait to transfer a domain name once the money arrives because it was registered fewer than 60 days previously. This is indeed an ICANN regulation and if the domain is at a registrar that doesn't allow a push, there really is no option other than waiting.

In an ideal world of course, we would check the domains ourselves for this information before they go into transfer, but with 9 million domains on our market platform, that isn't really possible. I recommend to all domain buyers to check the Whois for domains you are bidding on before you reach an agreement, especially if you are in a hurry to use the domain.

Regards,

Crux this is not an ICANN rule. ICANN only has a rule about the first 60 days of registration. Not a change of contacts.

I bet your domain is at godaddy. They are the only ones that have this rule.

 

[crux]

yes. its on godaddy.

its all solved now. it was moved to another godaddy account.

best regards
