Too bad that we have to have these thoughts about a major player in the secondary market. Funny, I don't have these thoughts about Moniker, snapnames or even afternic. Why is Sedo so bad? I cringe every time I get an offer from the site. I have about a 50% completion rate there. “and who knows if the bidding for dollars.com is real or not.”

There is no doubt that auction like this is generating lot of interest and excitement in domain industry. Indirectly, big players like you would benefit from all this puplicity created by Sedo. Do you know how many media outlets reported the Pizza sale? You reported the one in the NYPost, remember? Hypes or no-hypes, lay people are being enlightened that serious dough could be made in this industry. Watchout! for Angels and VCs. ----answer---- I did not report it on the front page on the blog, I put it in the section of "my readings" which is, if I don't comment on, strictly things I read and find interesting.

I didn't want to burst any bubbles but I intentially left out the fact that I have had many deals go sideways on Sedo. They are infamous for unfinished transactions. They really don't do enough to verify buyers. Sahar,

I agree completely. I didn’t want to burst any bubbles but I intentially left out the fact that I have had many deals go sideways on Sedo. They are infamous for unfinished transactions. They really don’t do enough to verify buyers.
