Expired Domain Name Xi9.com goes to War!

Xi9.com is currently listed as an expired dot com on GoDaddy Auctions with 8 days remaining and already at $9,505 U.S. Dollars with 20 bids.  Bidder #2 and #3 are at a bidding war that makes no sense to me!

Why in the world would you bump the price up from $10 to $9,505 dollars?

End Users do pay good money for domain names they want! But the bumping of price going up so high so quickly is very fishy in my opinion.

Some domain name owners don’t renew their domain names on time simply because they want to test the market value if there is any in the expired domain name auction listings.  It happens all the time on GoDaddy Auctions, I’ve placed bids on numerous expired dot com’s that got pulled from the expired auctions listing due the fact that the owner realized his mistake or simply got a free reseller appraisal value and renewed his or her domain name.

Whatever the case is with Xi9.com, GoDaddy Auctions Staff need to include a REPORT button on every individual domain name that is listed in their auction listing to increase security and customer protection.  As a GoDaddy customer and a Domainer it is our responsibility to report fishy auction listings and unethical domain name trades (trademarks, typos, etc).

Until my next Domaining News Alert, Happy Domaining!

    40i.com is a better domain name and that’s at $400 dollars.

    China’s new leader is named Xi jinping and then look at this

    In the East. The number 9 is a positive number in Chinese Numerology, as it sounds like the pronunciation of the word “longlasting” and represents longevity. The number 9 was also traditionally associated with China’s emperor. 9 is the only number associated with the Fire element, which stands for ideas of motivation and truth.

    could be coincidental?…
