I have successfully acquired the domain name 0412.com in June 10!
But I haven't receive a confirmation email with account access information.

Define "successfully acquired".

0412.com $4,120

Snapnames is auctioning my 0412.com in sedo!

While it would be interesting to hear some more detail about this, it's a pretty safe bet that Snapnames would not use Sedo to auction a domain name.

Sedo does not delete the domains that were listed before automatically , can this be the case ? I also see some of the domains I own listed on sedo for sale by the previous owners.

Who auction my domain?
I purchased this domain name from snapnames.I had already paid via paypal.
But I haven't receive a confirmation email with account access information. And the whois information, I am not the Registrant.

Tin,

Did you sell a domain by giving the account access directly?
Snapnames usually put the domain in the same account with a particular registrar.

I think not, I did not Directi Account.

I have successfully acquired the domain name 0412.com in June 10.
The auction started from the 15th.
I think previous owners, not to be confused

I did a domain history check on 0412.com and its registered to the SAME person from 06/07/07 to the present, it never changed hands, which tells me Snapnames may have auctioned off a domain that never actually dropped, OR it dropped and the screw up is at the Directi, the registrar.

Snapnames never stole your domain, I question if they ever had control of it in the first place.

You need some sleep ;). It was dropped on the 6th. It was owned by a Korean all the way until it was dropped.
My guess is that DirectI put it in a wrong account.

I backordered a domain at Snapnames, 4 bidders, I won the auction, I paid for the auction, I never got the domain, days go by, I open a support ticket and get a email something like this;

The domain was accidentally placed in our system, we apologize for the inconvenience and have already credited the amount back to your credit card on file. :angry:

I suspect something like this happened here.

It happened to me about a year ago for a .info name. It was only 1 month later when I received my CC statement, that there was suddenly a charge from snapnames. I emailed them, with replies back and forth, and it was all sorted out in a week, and they apologized also. hehe

Considering the time zone Tin's in, he probably won't be able to answer for a few hours.
However, he did included a screenshot of the confirmation from snapnames, and I have spoken with him privately about this.

Snappy said:
"We have debited your account $4,120.00, the amount of your winning bid"
He paid with Paypal.
