Hello Everyone,

I have recently won couple of domains in the NJ auction, both registered at eNom, which is not my favorite registrar. One of the domain has been paid about 10 days ago and still no respond from enom. What is your experiences / waiting time for domains from NJ + enom? Another question is, do you avoid to bid for a domains provided by certain registrars? Thanks in advance.

T.

Was it a drop or a private sale? If it's the latter, it's dependent on the listing owner's ability to do their part in an expedient manner.

Drop NameJet support an email, they are excellent.

Was it a drop or a private sale?

1st was public auction, second private sale.

Received a respond from NJ, they are aware of delay, still in progress.

Thanks Theo.

No problem, happy bids

Received the firs domain, but blocked to transfer until may 31st and will expire on may 20th, with $40 renewal (TLD) each. So I guess avoid to bid on domains provided by enom, unless steel deal.

 

[Theo]

That's very strange, although possible to happen. For the record, NJ has a base cost of under $8 for domain renewals at eNom.

NJ has a base cost of under $8 for domain renewals at eNom.

Will ask the NJ, thanks again for info Theo.

 

[Theo]

Sure thing. Again, it doesn't hurt to ask You can point out the facts, that the domain expires prior to its 42 (?) days of lock down and that the renewal price is well above the industry average.

that's because they created you an account at enomcentral, but you can get reseller account with reg fee as low as $9.00 from another reseller or directly thru enom

i think member 'bari' also works for enom too


then you can push those names to cheaper account and renew


talk w/nj about merging your enom/nj accounts if you get one, then any names you win will go to that one.

Don, as far as I know, you can't push domains to other accounts while under the 6-week lockdown after a win at NJ. But good idea, Bari might be able to assist

Well, I can't even move the domain(s) between eNom accounts until may 31st and must be renewed by may 20th.
If I'll spend $40 / each for renewal, than I'll be close to mid $xxx for nnn.org.

Thanks Biggie

Theo, don't know anything about a 6 week lockdown that applies to pushing to another account.


is that dependant on what stage or auction the domain was sold in?

not sure, but i think pricing at enomcentral.com and enom.com are different for new users

you could try and go directly to enom and create an account to see what pricing is, then see if you can push your name to that account if pricing is lower.


only thing with enom, is that you have to "fill" your account with funds, prior to using them and minimum by credit card or paypal is $100.00 minus 4% fee

if you send check or wire, no fee.

 

[Theo]

Correct, I'm referring to domains won at NameJet and registered with eNom. AFAIK, they stay put until 42 days (and nights) pass.

 

[Theo]

OK, so it turns out that if the source account at eNom is a reseller, they can push out the domain to another account. That, however, defeats the purpose, as reseller accounts already have low rates.
