Does Godaddy Buy Searched Domains
This is my question this has happened a few times for me now and just thought it was just coincidence but I don't think so.
This morning I was going to buy the domain TelephoneTricks.com which was available at the time so I put it in my list to buy later and low and behold nearly 1 hour later the domains gone and now being sold as a premium domain for $600 this has happened so many times just wondered if any of you have found this.
May be I should of bought it there and then, then I wouldn't be moaning eh

Regards

Still it has been known NOT to search for domains using Godaddy as things like this happen. Although this is not the case in your particular domain. Notice the registration date was in 2005.

when you checked it first it was probably available, but as a premium domain. maybe you didn't notice the price tag on it?

Sometimes when you search for available domains it says it is available, but when you go thru the checkout it will tell you it is not. It happens sometimes.

I searched there off and on for 2 months and each time, domainsaleszone was available. I just couldn't make up my mind to be a reseller.
Others I searched there were available day after day too. Some I checked a year ago are gone, some aren't.
