    SEDO.ca

    I had to laugh when I went to sedo.ca and it is only in French. We have two official languages in Canada sedo.

    I have dealt with SEDO for over 8 years now and I for one am extremely dissappointed in their lack of recognition of the .ca marketplace. I have emailed them numerous times about a better Canadian recognition but it never went anywhere.

    yeah, that's weird. It gives you about 10 languanges to choose from, but after a few seconds of inactivity it loads the french version

    I have had two sales of .ca's there. they take a min $100usd of the sale price. and are absolutly no help when trying to instruct the buyer on the transfer process, both times they gave me the buyers contact info and I handled it direct. if I waited for sedo it would have taken weeks if not months

    I agree Ian. Since they grabbed and developed the .ca version of sedo, they should have at least educated themselves on the transfer process.

    Sorry I'm new, so if I sell a .ca for say $60 I have to pay them $100 so I'm left at -$40?

    Got to know the Creole.

    A $60 sale would only incur a $10 fee I believe.

    Thank you.

    That would make sense. It's just that the way the sedo price info is worded, and based on other discussions on dnforum, I thought the $100 minimum applied to all .ca sales regardless of sale price. I hope you're correct.

    Anyone care to confirm that has experience selling a .ca on sedo? Did you pay the $100 or just the 10%?

    Yeah, I have had .ca sales through sedo but nothing substantial, the $100 fee really takes a chunk out of those sales, so I no longer bother with trying to sell them there...

    Wow, that's nuts. Thanks for confirming that if I sell a $60 .ca on sedo I actually lose $40 on the sale because they'd keep the $60 plus another $40 out of my pocket.

    I am not exactly sure if that is the case... I have never sold a name there for less than $100...

    Where's the cheapest place to sell .ca domains via auction? Pool.com seems cheaper. Any others?

    Just set your minimum offer to $1500 or $2000, or whatever best absorbs that $100 commission for you.

    Got an offer yesterday on sedo for $125 - after sedo's cut that's 25...

    Anyways I countered with 1500. Bonehead counters with 250 so I put it to 2500. They then have the gall to send a message that I'm an amateur....

    If that is someone from here - GET A LIFE YOU TWIT - and learn how to value a domain name.
