Hi,

I won the auction, after I won the auction, instead of getting the domain, I got an email , the domain is given to the registered and you have been issued an refund?? I mean why auction the domain first, if we do not get the 1) I stayed up all night for the auction, and did a brief research!!! regarding the domain.
domain.


2) Secondly, When I won the auction, I found out My ALL THE ""HARD WORK" , missing my school, etc, job, for the auction, and in the end I found out, I won the auction, and I still dont get the domain.

I hope dynadot staff would realise this, this is very hurting their auction system, since there are no gurantees for the domain, who will bid, who want to trust DYNADOT AUCTIONS, if the domain is not given to you, even you win the auction, even if you did that hardwork, leaving your job etc.

Dynadot is good registrar, but I am very disappointed at this time, putting all the efforts in, and winning the auction and not getting the domain.

Why even auction the domain at the first place, if dynadot is not sure that domain will be given to that person, completely waste of time!.

Regards.

doesnt work like that, like you wanted, would be cool if someone from dynadot can confirm on me

they are auctioning the domain before it gets dropped, they cant after they drop it unless they actually renew it, and if no one wants it, they loose money like that
also there is policy (ican etc) that the owner of the domain can recover the domain before it gets dropped, but the price to recover it is way more than renewal (so one waiting to see bids on their domain before renewing it at 10 times the price, would be crazy imho), so its expected that most auctioned domains wont be renewed
so you are auctioning hoping that the owner wont renew it
auctioning is kinda like snapnames.com, cheaper sometimes, but you are assured that if the owner doesnt renew it, you are the one who gets it
plus you get a refund if you dont actually get the domain, which i think is fair
i think dynadot is great everything aside, and this is not something they can change, there are other though, more extentions, better api, etc etc

Same for me several days ago
A shame imo.
And I don't care what other do, we are not at tdn*m or else; plz stop this now.
