Ebay Auction for a Platinum Membership!!

**Fearless** · 02-19-2003, 10:41 AM

GeorgeK came up with an excellent idea. Have a 10 day Ebay auction for a DNF Platinum membership. Everyone here benefits from increased membership. The exposure on Ebay will attract domain name buyers and sellers that haven't discovered DNF as of yet.

After consulting with the current Platinum members and getting a favorable response, I started the Ebay auction. Here it is.

For those that are sitting on the fence, this is your chance to get a discount.

I do. It's that "Register" tab at the top of the page.

Very nicely written ad - that should do the trick! Nice early bidding action too. Wilco, no reason you can't bid - it is open to the public. You may be on the fringes of society but to my knowledge you have not been kicked out yet!

In the Platinum forum I estimated a $45-$48 final price. It's already at 42.99. Maybe I should have guessed $55-$58.

GeorgeK's idea has already been proven a success. We have a new Platinum member that came by way of Ebay. He apparently had never heard of DNF. Go figure.
