For Sale NameWinner Problems

[uuallan]

I am trying to use the NameWinner service to bid on a Dotster-registered domain that is about to expire.

I am getting an error when I enter the domain saying that the domain was not registered by an approved registrar :-(. I e-mail their support for help, but so far I have gotten no response.

Any suggestions, or should I just give up?

 

What is the 'registrar' the name is listed under currently? Does the 'who is' list Dotster as the original Registrar for the name?

hmmm
interesting..

and when you try to reg. this very same name though say..

Register.com what happens? have you tried.. ?

has it dropp'd? or is it still held up by the registrar..

* the fact that your rec'ing a error msg. that states "This registrar is not an accredited registrar".. is worthy of deeper
investigation. 4sure.

register.com says the domain is already registered and I cannot have it . It also wants to know if I want to make an anonymous offer for the domain to the owner.

has it dropp'd? or is it still held up by the registrar..

The domain hasn't expired yet, it won't until the end of May, so it has not dropped from the registrar, and it is accessible.

I'de really like to see the 'who is' data on this name.

if you'de trust, and send the name in question to me by email:
[email protected] i'll research it more.
I've been conducting a study and research on Registrars, DropNames etc...

This is my public notice, that i do not want the name you desire, nor would i ever register or do a snap on it. i have never used the snap services, but i am very deep into research on this particular issue & plan to publish an e-book on the matter.

I give away more names that are 'drops'' and available then I do purchase them myself..

I'll even give you a free copy with rights to resell or give away the e-book.

Thing is, no one can really assist you with your Quest, without knowing more about the name in question.

regardless..

Goodluck to you!

this is the current data on file/record.

but what i want to archive is the past 'who is' history on
the name.

but generally, when the 'who is' makes the change.. as posted in your msg... it's close to DropN..

generally within 6 days from the 'change' in the 'who is'.. is what I understand to be the case..

I've e-mailed you the domain information, thanks for your assistance.

I am not sure how to collect archived registration information. If you can tell me how to collect it, I will be happy to do so.

Thanks again

I have noticed that when a domain is registered with dotster.com before it`s dropping, You can`t bid in namewinner.com.
