I received an email offer via Sedo's parking service to purchase a domain name I own, interested, I went to the link. I filled in a counter offer price and in the comment section I entered; that the domain came with a Registered US Trademark, a shell Texas Corporation and 4 more domain names used in support of the main domain. Kind of important information, I thought.
I then received an email reply from Sedo explaining that they submitted my counter offer minus the comment, their explanation was that I added my name to the comment and they could not submit the comment with my name.
I replied, no problem, my mistake, just delete my name from the comment and, re-submit the comment.
Sedo replied back, with a rude email containig information on how to delete the domain name from my account.
I thought wow, they did not even try to understand the situation.
I replied back that there was a communication problem and suggested they pay closer attention to their customers concerns and maybe take an active role in the sale of a name.
Get this-
I got a nasty reply back from Sedo, "everything is automated, not in our control", that "Sedo does not interfere with a sale" however, "Sedo will interfere with a sale if the name is of exceptional quality, earns substantial parking revenue, has been evaluated by Sedo at $30,000 or more and the owner has signed an exclusivity contract with us".
Wow, what a condescending slap in the face.
Furthermore, the advertisements I receive from Sedo paint a different picture of the domain sales service program offered from what the reality is.
Sedo's domain name sales system seems to be nothing more than a bulletin board service pretending to be sales system, and they want 10%? they must be smoking crack, 10% for what?, if you're going to sell the name I will gladly pay 10%, but to be insulted and pay for it and not have my reasonable requests honored. Even three days latter, my original comment still has not been entered. Maybe for 25% they can kick me in the groin .
Anyone else have issues with Sedo's domain name bulletine board sales service?
