Domain on Ebay question

[redbulldog]

Ive been looking at a domain on Ebay but when I checked the whois, it gave the following info. Has anybody got any ideas what this means and if the current owner will be able to transfer the domain?


Domain Status: clientDeleteProhibited
Domain Status: clientRenewProhibited
Domain Status: clientTransferProhibited
Domain Status: clientUpdateProhibited

Cheers

--------------------------------

yes - the domain has been locked by the owner to prevent unauthorized transfer - i have the same notation with some registrars i use on locked domains

Is it a .org?

If I bought it would he be able to tranfer it to me?

I'm not sure but I believe it would be okay because the client, who is the seller, should have control over it. Hopefully someone here will post that knows more about the situation but another good idea is to e-mail the seller on ebay and have him/her explain. Good luck.
