HOLLYWOOD, Fla. - Moniker will accept domain submissions for its Internext Summer adult domain auctions through Wednesday, June 18.
The live auction will be held from 2-5 p.m. Friday, Aug. 8, in Regency Ballrooms 2 and 3 at the Westin Diplomat Resort and Spa in Hollywood, Fla.

"We are extremely pleased to be bringing back, for the fourth time, the world's only adult-centric domain auction to Internext in August," said Farley Cahen, vice president of licensing and business development for AVN Media Network. "The adult marketplace is growing ever more competitive. Companies are realizing that high-quality domain names increase their brand value both in and outside the industry."

bump for our homies

If only I had the foresight to not let blubberslut.com expire.

Moniker runs some great auctions.

You own that?

bump...bump!!

Here's a rumor that I haven't been able to get anyone to answer direct yet. So, heads up. Apparently, there's a 2-year period where if you sell your name with anyone else.. you owe Moniker their commission.

If you sign your name with Moniker for a Traffic auction, you are locked in for 120 days. The last 15-days of that 120 day period, you can request in writing not to renew perpetually. You're still liable to pay them the commission if you sell your name a year later to someone else without using Moniker during the 2 years however.

If anyone gets a straight answer on this, that'd be great.

I already submitted mine

Have you tried reading the contract? I guess it would be in there if it were true.

It's the Non Circumvent clause I am referring to. It was posted on another forum, so I can't link you to it. I posted and ased if that's what it really meant, but they didn't reply. So it's at the very least, something to consider when you submit your names. You might be locked into sharing 20% commission with Moniker for 2 years even if they don't try to sell the name.

20%?

that's a pretty high commission rate per industry standard going rate isn't it Brujah?

iMoniker... :thumbsup

Waaaaaaaaaa?

Depends on the name and the final price. Afternic and Sedo are closer to 10% but more if you use their broker services. Snapnames is 20% but varies depending on the final price of the name I think. Some individual brokers also charge from 5% to 20%, depending.

Thanks for the shout out Chris and pump up Evan! I look forward to seeing you both in Florida next month. :winkwink:

Brujah - please hit me up directly to discuss your concerns :thumbsup

I know what fourm you're speaking of, and I think it's true. Why do you think they didn't answer you?

Brujah

To address your comment/concerns about the Non Circumvent clause - You can get out of the agreement IF you notify us in writing after the auction...assuming your name does not sell.

Please feel free to contact me direcly if need be :thumbsup

Thank you for the clarification!

Anytime Bari - me loves Moniker.....:winkwink:

My pleasure! :winkwink:

Aww....Right back atcha lover....see ya soon!

I tried this last year with moniker never heard back from them after I submitted my domain names. Sad thing is I'm sitting on a ton of good domain names. Anyone interested in brokering some names for me?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Talk about your kneejerk responses...

Choker - Who did you submit your names to? Please contact me at Bari at Moniker dot com or via ICQ with your names if you're interested in submitting them again. I assure you - you will hear back from me personally. :thumbsup

The non circumvent is only if moniker introduced the seller to you or is responsible for the lead. Atleast that was what it use to be when they first started taking names for the targeted traffic auctions. That was what was stated on the few i signed.

Non-circumvention clauses are standard in many similar brokered transactions. Real estate listing contracts have them, for example.

Yeah.

Now if they would only run, and invest in their registrar service and business. :winkwink:
