cctld DomDom.ca Now Accepting TBR Backorders!

[JohnWinner]

Hi folks,
I'm happy to announce that DomDom.ca is now taking TBR backorders!
Low price of $10,55 / successful TBR on a first come first served basis.
Hurry up, it won't last long, the auction system is in development.

Almost forgot...
For those of you who compile their own TBR list, it takes 2 seconds to backorder your entire list with DomDom:

yikkes, it is "first come first serve" I am seeing the TBR but not the cart so i assume someone backordered first

 

[JohnWinner]

No the "TBR" icon just indicate the status of the domain. Just click on that icon to backorder.

 

[ianccc]

ok

Note to myself: it's not clear enough!

TBR backordering system, should be fixed... if you have a domain backordered already by another customer then let me know... I actually have been backordering with you for awhile thinking you were trying to catch domains for me, this week I find out you caught a domain I backordered with you and someone else had backordered it first??? I understand your first come first serve but don't throw it in my cart and make me think you are working for me on that domain. Let the person know its already backordered by someone else.
let me know if you fixed this.

Thanks :frusty:

I understand your point but please do not forget that people add/delete domains until 15 minutes before the session. It's impossible to know the final layout of backorders until the last minute.
Don't worry, I am "working for you"... I'm very cheap labor at around $0.00001/hour so far this year for this project...

 

[stewie]

yeah but at least let me know where I stand...I had a bunch of names and who knows if I was first to backorder or not... not meeee (which makes no sense at all)

Nice work, looks good to me so far. But like the others said maybe make the TBR backorder system a little more clear. Other then that it looks awesome and is pretty useful.

I appreciate your kind words supraturbo! (I like your nickname! :cheesy

Hiding the current position of backorder is a choice I made to not discourage people of keeping their backorder in place and to simplify the whole system. With the current "first come, first served" system the position information doesn't add any extra value except making the user doubt about keeping or removing the backorder. I cannot afford to lose backorders just because someone forgot that the whole backorders layout can change at any moment. This was the idea.

Anyway the current system is a temporary one, the final one is coming and will be all about positions...

It's sad to see you close down. But I understand. All the very best in your future endeavours.
