ouch - that hit an artificial ceiling!

Always lots to learn in life and selling [edit: and buying] domains with Sedo presents lots of learning opportunities.

Nice price anyhow.

 

[domainseller200]

what a joke ! so who won it for £9,999 ? buyer 1 or buyer 2 ?

 

[redbird]

Buyer1 because he set a max bid of 9,999 earlier so his bid wins. I suspect that it may have gone a little higher if bidder 2 had been pre authorised to bid over £10k but without his max bid was £9,9999

Shame about the cap, but still a good price.

Maybe you'd like to offer a bit more for Droitwich Spa now ;-)

Makes you think, perhaps buyer 2 (could be Sedo) had this knowledge and was pumping to push buyer 1 to its limit.

Naughty of me to assume, but It does seem strange.

I'm pretty sure bidder 2 is a member here, but not for me to say who


EDIT: I now know that was not the case

Ah right, congrats. on the sale.

Perhaps if the cap wasn't in place buyer 1 would have put a higher max bid in?

Are auctions at Sedo for not approved bidders capped at 10K?

Yes Certification. The standard certification is "...Buying Domains under 10,000 USD/EUR/GBP in an auction...." which I can only assume is why the end price was 9999 and not 10,000 which would have been more logical.

 

[foz]

Thanks for that.

nice sale Dave, well done. mines a carling.

 

[retired_member12]

Nice money if you can get it, but i'm not seeing why this was worth £10k!

DoubleTap...

Type in "tfl" into google. Also check up on the google keywords... big figures.

So it's either the no1 from google search or someone wanting the type-ins.

I reckon the latter.

Yup, took off my dunce hat and did the Google. Pocket money for them then if it's the no. 1 you refer to
.
Brings back recent thoughts of the Denys spat, they could chase that particular domain name too, especially now that a news story seems to have broke about 1 hour ago about them purchasing the O***** C*** system!

I can say it isn't the No1, but don't wish to say much more until the deal is all done.
