Unplain

On Godaddy’s TDNAM domain aftermarket, be careful when you’re about to checkout with the “buy it now/bid” button. Lol, after finding out about this new “buy it now/bid” option for expired names, I went and found a great generic/traffic name with a starting bid of about $xx.  But of course, not wanting to get into a bidding war and paying the price of a million dollar camel, I clicked and selected the “buy it now”…

Thinking I would get the name for $xx cost, I simply selected the “agree” box at bottom like I always do when buying names at TDNAM.

What I didnt know, since it was a new feature, there was a “buy it now” price I didnt see <tongue in cheek>.

I got the name for $xxx.

oops, gotta pay the piper.

I didnt lose anything though since name types like these are worth mid $xxxx.

So, beware if you’re eyeing up a big expensive name, you might initially have to throw your favorite “dollar store” wallet in the wood chipper…
