[QUOTE="Bear79, post: 2279489, member: 322964725"] Hi folks! I'm looking for some kind of advice from domain area. I found a domain listed for sale on Afternic and GoDaddy Auctions. The buy now price was $XXXX (hidden). [I]Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Registrar WHOIS Server: whois.godaddy.com Updated Date: 2017-XX-... Registry Expiry Date: 202X-XX...[/I] I placed an order on Afternic, got bank transfer details and sent a wire transfer. Next day, I was notified from Afternic that they [U]couldn't verify domain ownership of the seller[/U], my purchase is cancelled and refund is to be issued to the bank details which I have to send. As far as I understand, Afternic business is to verify domain ownership, receive funds and release funds to domain sellers once transfer is complete. It is very strange to me that the [U]terms of sale have been cancelled[/U]. [B]* * *[/B] I'm interested in this domain, so I went at Godaddy Auctions on the same day. The domain was listed there till [U]October, 2018[/U] (I've a screenshot). I asked an assistance in purchase though the live chat. In result of discussion, the [U]domain was removed from GoDaddy Auction[/U]. I was informed that the[U] domain owner added the listing and removed it recently[/U]. How recently the agent couldn't tell. The agent asked me to make an offer to buy the domain, so I made the offer with the same figure. I don't know if the seller agrees with my price. [B]BUT, I suspect that I'm being taken out of the deal:[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Domain owner has not been changed since 2017. [*]Domain registrar is GoDaddy. [*]Different statements: Afternic couldn't verify domain ownership of the seller (domain not owned by the seller), GoDaddy didn't update auction listing made by the owner. [/LIST] [B]What do you think guys? Did I loose my sale agreement or not?[/B] [/QUOTE]
