Sorry, this is a little long...Recently on tdnam, I made a mistake on a bid...
It was a decent name in .cc
Basically I wanted to bid $65 and accidentally bid $665 (there was about 18 hrs left on the auction and I was the only bidder at that point). Right away I e-mailed tdnam and they got back to me and said that they would delete the bid ,but that if this happened again with my account...my account may be suspended.
I noticed the next day, about 2 hrs before the auction was to end, that my incorrect bid of $665 was still up...I called tdnam and after waiting on hold for about 25 min...the rep told me that they were aware of the situation and would handle it.
Bottom line...The bid was never retracted and someone else bid the name up to $200+...I ended up winning the auction. Later I got an e-mail saying 'sorry for the confusion...we have deleted your bid'. This sound all good to me except that the other person bidding on this name would have gotten this name for about $70 buck most likely...and paid 200+
I think something stinks with this type of practice. Has anyone else experienced anything a little shady about tdnam?
