Judging by the email they received from Dan, they did own the domain at one point. The Seller didn't remove the domain from Dan after they sold it. I'm not aware of any marketplace that does reverification, unless the new owner tries to list it on that marketplace. With whois privacy, reverification becomes more difficult. I suppose if a marketplace really wanted to, they could require you to keep a TXT record and repeatedly check it.Its not rocket science to require verification for listing domains on marketplaces. I do not know why in 2023 we're still having this issue. It gives the industry a black eye.
Very, very sad statement.Show attachment 235116
Validate the effectiveness of the domain from DAN in your next deal. It is the solution from DAN.COM
i honestly don't like the back and forth or the drama of it all but your words motivated me i sent them an email if they fuck up badly i will be making my own thread on namepros hope you guys got my back on this ^^ just checked by bank account the amount that i lost is 52.79$ but once again it is more about the principalPlease consider demanding that you be reimbursed for those additional charges. Don't be afraid of asking DAN and GoDaddy, that owns them, to act responsibly. After all, even if this happened in the past, you now have had to go through the experience again--although at least apparently without the financial loss.
One NP member did report that a different marketplace did demand that the seller pay a fine for not being able to produce the domain with a sale. In that case, it appeared that the domain was sold in two places for BIN. The losing BIN marketplace, unable to make the sale due to it being sold by the owner elsewhere, did not take it lightly.
Also, do not be afraid to post your experience on TrustPilot. This all the more encourages Dan and GoDaddy to act in good faith, to at least reimburse you for the additional costs incurred by the previous mishap. And, hopefully they would try to deal with this problem more seriously in the future. After all, it would presumbly not be difficult for listings to be verified BEFORE the sale.
If THEY f up badly? It wasn’t their domain!i honestly don't like the back and forth or the drama of it all but your words motivated me i sent them an email if they fuck up badly i will be making my own thread on namepros hope you guys got my back on this ^^ just checked by bank account the amount that i lost is 52.79$ but once again it is more about the principal
Who are you talking to? I don’t peddle names here.LOL its karma, you did the same when I wanned to buy a domain from your list. (at first domain was pointed to you list, but next day you listed it for a couple of hundred bucks higher on dan.com)
That is a significant amount of money. Is that what you lost from the previous failed transaction, or this most recent one?i just checked by bank account the amount that i lost is 52.79$ but once again it is more about the principal
an old failed transaction almost a month old got in touch with support they will get back to me after getting in touch with the finance department ^^That is a significant amount of money. Is that what you lost from the previous failed transaction, or this most recent one?
You deserve to be reimbursed for this. After all, the lack of verification is a likely an economic decision on their part. The technology is there for them to eliminate these problem listings before a sale like this fails. They choose not to implement the mandatory verification checks, even right before a sale is processed on one of these listings.an old failed transaction almost a month old got in touch with support they will get back to me after getting in touch with the finance department ^^
Because maybe they're end users? Why didn't I check the break pads and oil seal before buying a car from a car dealership? Because they're supposed to look at that stuff FOR me.Why are you guys hitting buy without typing it into a browser/checking name servers? You had to type it on DAN internal search to find it correct?
As a buyer you have to do your homework too. I bought on Afternic same thing happened twice now I always check the whois and nameservers.
Assuming your seller was an honest but not diligent seller who actually owned the domain but had already sold it elsewhere, I talked about this very issue here.It can happen with any market place: Afternic, Sedo, GD, etc...
The owner listed everywhere and sold in one place but forgot to remove the listing.
Having a Buy it Now at more than one marketplace for the same domain could lead to conflicts and the inability to deliver the domain.
Please do not keep propagating this myth. That is clearly not the only situation involved.Because maybe they're end users? Why didn't I check the break pads and oil seal before buying a car from a car dealership? Because they're supposed to look at that stuff FOR me.
Please, OP, don't ruin DAN's reputation. Most domainers own many domains and drop some without removing them from marketplaces because they simply have too much on their plate or they forget.
Its all BS ,bought a domain from godaddy 2 weeks ago for 100 bucks a 2 word .org not bad ,worth a grand to resell,anyway ,godaddy refunded the purchase and promised to PUNISH the degenerate,Guess what 2 weeks later the S-Bg had the domain listed at godaddy again for 2 grand,,,,same seller ,,ALL BS ,the domain was regged at gd too ,they should have just transferred instantlyThis happens all the time. You get a refund. If the person doesn’t own the domain, there isn’t much else you can do.
Thank you for sharing your experience.Its all BS ,bought a domain from godaddy 2 weeks ago for 100 bucks a 2 word .org not bad ,worth a grand to resell,anyway ,godaddy refunded the purchase and promised to PUNISH the degenerate,Guess what 2 weeks later the S-Bg had the domain listed at godaddy again for 2 grand,,,,same seller ,,ALL BS ,the domain was regged at gd too ,they should have just transferred instantly
They are not end users they are domainers who won’t admit they didn’t even bother to type the name into a browser. I don’t know about anyone else but I type many names into a browser per day as well as do whois checks.Because maybe they're end users? Why didn't I check the break pads and oil seal before buying a car from a car dealership? Because they're supposed to look at that stuff FOR me.

Now that is amazing!!!There are plenty of domains that are actively for sale at Dan.com but some Dan sellers do not own them.
Domains listed at Dan for $99M is available for registration LOL.

It is easy to install DNS verification and run the cron job every day and if a name is missing a nameserver records then de-list it, simple and easy to do!

no it is not. u are missing the point. the reason they dont do it it's because it's not simple.
HiThat is a significant amount of money.
