Good news for a #domain investor who got slapped with 25% fees on an #Afternic sale that took place while the DNS was set to n21/ns2.CashParking. That's #GoDaddy's own nameservers!
Afternic will refund the extra 10% it kept due to its Transaction Assurance being untrained.

But still, this 25% "head tax" remains for thousands of #domains that "dare" to use an alternate DNS, either with their owner's landers, or competing services, such as #Sedo, #Efty, and others.
If a sale occurs on a domain listed on GoDaddy's marketplaces but not on an approved DNS, 25% of the earnings is kept as a fee. This is a ridiculous and anti-competitive move by GoDaddy.
Have you had your #domains pointing to the same landers for a while now? Not getting any action?
Switch things up, move to new landers, test @afternic or @Undeveloped landers..
Often times, after making changes to your dns you could land a sale or get an offer..
WHY?? 👇🏻👇🏻

Buyers are thrifty.. they often setup monitoring on your domain to be alerted of any dns changes.. they are hopeful you will let the name expire and will swoop in to get it for less than your asking price was..
Another tip.. adjust your pricing a bit.. even just $25… if you have domains listed or synched to @sedo through another marketplace then any buyer who is watching your listing at sedo will be emailed about the price change..
