[QUOTE="amplify, post: 2351083, member: 130638"] I was unaware that DropCatch bids against you with Discount Domains. I've regularly used Discount Domains as a way of catching not-so-sought-after domains for an opening bid of $11-22 to ensure that I get it. This domain was no different. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1639489340596.png"]5837[/ATTACH] But the day after I thought it must have landed in my account, I had my first "Lost - Partner" domain. Now, I've had my share of "Lost - Discount Club - $XX.00" lost domains. Meaning, someone else had also used Discount Domains with a higher opening bid or straight up back-ordered it for $59. So, I'm not unfamiliar with losing a domain through the Discount Club. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1639489614608.png"]5838[/ATTACH] I would have just shrugged this loss off. However, it's a vested interest of mine since I've sold plenty of domains locally; this name would be no different at one point or another. So, I followed through the next few days to see who picked it up and if someone had moved to town with the great name. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1639489760218.png"]5839[/ATTACH] Nope. It was just DropCatch bidding against me. To be fair, they aren't the same company. However, you've got to be lying to yourself if you believe they didn't snipe this on their own platform. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1639489998810.png"]5840[/ATTACH] Because I didn't bid $48 more on the domain, it was added to HugeDomains' portfolio and going to be a $2000 sale for them, and not for me. If you didn't already know, let it be known that if they find more value in the domain themselves, they will be the "partner" you lose to.
