I am also very sad to see them close as I also used their site a few times a day… and have sold a good number on domains there to.

“so we have reset your complimentary voting points to 2220″

Just look at the business concept before judging my email. A kid can look at the potential for making money with this system and say “ARE you CRAZY?”

“so we have reset your complimentary voting points to 2220″

I do no care what anyone says, if there were smart they would show it by at least to exit with dignity. Which business gives 24hr notice to close?

smart business man plan for exit as well. there were no explanation but “Good bye” and we are trying to sell our business domain name and technology for SIX figures. That is almost as stupid as the business.

I am not surprised at all. From one domain A DAY to auctioning like crazy, it was obvious from start that these people had NO SOLID BIZ plan to start a Business.

sorry to see you go but your deserved it.

Good luck to both of them! I know they will bounce back and do what they love most.

Morgan,

I was also disappointed to learn that as well this morning when I surfed over to Bido this morning after receiving my morning auction notifications.

It is also reassuring to know that the owners are respectable and are going to make a smooth exit for the clients…
