Godaddy Auction Sale? Anyone w/ payment problems? Domainbuy?

Had an offer for one of my domains out of the clear blue. $600 for eroticla.com and wasn't doing much with it so I accepted the offer. 5 days ago. Been writing Go Daddy asking them when the bidder was going to pay and getting generic customer service replies. Working with the buyer to pay, etc....

Anyone else have problems with Go Daddy on their Auctions or Domainbuy services? Not looking for complaints on the domain services, since that could be endless..

did run into the opposite thing last week... bid on 2 domains, offered the asking price.... The only bids were mine... auction ended... both domains are still owned by their original owners and up for sale again at the same price... go figure...

Unfortunately til GoDaddy sets up the transaction (which I think they do AFTER they've gotten payment from the buyer), you won't know who the buyer is. They could legitimately be trying to get the buyer to send payment right now and have nothing else they can really tell you. That's the tough thing about this biz...on most marketplaces, you have no fucking clue who's buying a name from you until well after they've bought it once they change the whois info, so you're at the mercy of whatever (more often than not lazy) escrow agent or CS rep handling your transaction.

just an update for anyone who cares... spoke w/ GD today. dealt with a pretty cool guy. explained my problem. they emailed the person again this morning and will see. said 99% of the time it pays out. buyer has to pay a $70 fee to be able to bid on these types of domainbuy auctions and stuff. will see... don't wanna be the 1% that flakes out. lol... thanks for the replies..
