dn members pays for domains and 1 year later still no respond to pms!

I forgot who the buyer was, but i pm him several times and never got a response...

the domain expired 8 days ago and is in delete phaze...

since the domain expired, can i renew it and own it myself again? is this okay?

please let me know, what i should do?

Seems reasonable - or renew it, pm them one more time saying you had to renew it, please cover my costs, etc. Then make a public announcement stating the facts, that you were going to give up after this last announcement & keep it?

I would let it drop and backorder it if you really want the name.

Or renew it if you could transfer the domain to the buyer when he comes back (hopefully) and pays you the renewal fee.

What, you PM him 10 times but cannot remember who he is ?

If you know his username, use member stats to find threads started/posted and find another name he owns. From there use whois and pick up the phone. Take you all of 5 minutes.

Curious, what was the domain and price ?

Also you said it went into delete 8 days ago, no redemption ?

Maybe its worth it ?

Why would you drop it?

Most of us that have been around awhile have had this happen more than a few times. Unless it was an under $100 sale, I'd pay the renewal a couple times. An added bonus is that it may continue to earn parked revenue.

I had a guy buy a domain in 2000. In late Sept 2001 it came up for renewal. He never completed the weird procedures the registrars had back then (every one was different).
I paid for the renewal because I felt it was the right thing to do although I sent several emails and one snail mail to him and received no response.

At the end of October 2001 he got back to me. I'm glad I did what I did. He had spent the last month-and-a-half combing through the ruins of the South Tower looking for remains, including that of his sister. He was grateful when we finally straightened out stuff later after things settled down.

Many of us have resold domains a year or two later after we renewed domains because the buyers never fully completed the transfers on (through no fault of our own).

I see no reasonable reason to drop a perfectly good domain I already made a good profit on once before.

Majority agree dropping it is the best way to avoid future disputes!

Drop is the right call.

[bdjuf]

Why would you drop it? (unless its a crap domain)

keep it for another year, see if the guy writes back to you

and if not, sell it to someone else if its valuable!

The majority also voted for Bush. Clearly, the majority makes mistakes.

Common sense is just that -- common.
