    DomainState question ????????

    I successfully bid on a domain auction in DomainState and the reserve price was met. The auction is closed now.....but howcome I still dont get to win it ? I was told if my bid is succesful I have to purchase it.

    Is this some kind of insider auction to try to get a good price ? Or is it genuine ?

    When I placed a domain for auction I was told if the reserve price was met I was bound to sell it.

    The auction system is not autamated yet. Have you contacted the seller? I have noticed that the users don't always check in every day. So try contacting the seller.

    I was contacted by the seller and I am awaiting transfer of the domain after sending the payment.

    Was just a little anxious because this is my first successful bid and I am not familiar with DomainState.

    Thanks

    Don't worry. If you have any question about the auction, just contact the mods over there. From my experience, these guys are dedicated and professional.

    I agree domainstate is becoming what DNForum should have been.

    I wouldn't say that though (now that DNForum is under new ownership); what I can say is that those guys at DomainState are doing a good job so far.

    DomainState is great. DNForum.com - paying to use a forum? bah. I want to spit at them.
