I agree. You either bid early so high that no one else would pay that much or you snipe at the end too. People have been doing this on Ebay for years, including myself.
No Fearless
You cannot snipe a $2200 bid on ebay by $1
Let alone the fact that DNF is a bit slow for someone like me living in Australia.
Good luck to you Fearless , or whattever your real name is.
It is DNF that allows such stupid bidding at auctions, not you, although if you conduct another one, may I suggest minimum increments.
Whatever, I will never bid on a DNF auction until the appropriate rules are in place
BTW , how much do you think you would have got if I hadn't bid at all?.

A wannabe mod with a tr of 0?

No this is not Ebay and unless you're using a 300 baud dialup you could have bid $2,202. There was almost a whole minute after the last bid. I know, I kept refreshing expecting another bid. :)

My real name is Greg but you can call me Fearless.

I thought that auction went well so I won't be changing anything.

You're going to miss out. I sold 100's of these 3 letter .coms for around $300 each a couple of years ago and I have 100's more to sell.

I would have got the reseller value for a 3 letter .com.

Yes Greg
I am well aware who you are
That was just a dig at your reluctance to put your name on the LHS
How could I possibly forget someone who called me a
a scumbucket cybersquatter?
www.dnforum.com/f31/i-cant-stand-read-4-sale-any-longer-thread-122438.html
How could I possibly forget the former owner of DNF who ran auctions every sunday night cst with agreed rules in place?
I did very nicely out of the 3 letter nets, thanks
Ok, You thought the auction went well
Someone offered $2500
I would have went to 4k for reasons you will never know
No, I wasn't sitting there working out when CST time was compared to GMT and if there was DST in between and hitting refresh
It was actually my afternoon tea break at the time and I was listening for the doing from the email.
I was relying on emails from DNF
No, I will not bid on any more auctions that allow snipes of $1 on $2200
So go ahead and don't change anything
Look forward to dr Gilbert's comments when he gets sniped by $1

You're welcome.

You could make DomainMillionaire happy.

Not wise, especially when DNF has had email problems of late.

What's the difference between $1 over your bid and $100 over your bid when you were asleep at the wheel anyway? I'll tell you. It's $99. The difference between $2,301 and $2,202. $2,202 being what you could have got it for if you weren't asleep at the wheel with no min. bid increments and $2,301 with $100 bid increments. $1 or $100, you're still beat.

Whatever you say Greg
You know best . You are the one who made the big profit selling dnf, not me.
You left money on the table in this auction. However you seem very happy to do that.
Good Luck.

Fair enough
So in future, it gets down to who can offer $0.01 cents more than the last bid, in the last 1 second of bidding
i.e. the person with the fastest connection to the servers stateside.
Seems to me there is no point at all bidding, until the last few seconds and then it is just down to luck and speed of connection

Now you're seeing clearly. Domainers are always looking for an edge.
Someone else could bid $100 over the last bid in the last second. Then your last second penny over bid would fail. Excitement, that's what it's all about. :)
