Well, since you put the price back up to $60, in the last 24 hours there's been about one name start and finish auction.
That's it. At $15 you had a lot more than that every 24 hours. So do you still think you're leaving too much money on the table? I have 3 names in my watchlist that I won't be bidding for because they're not worth $60. What you have to remember is that since Tucows is taking the cream of expiries and claiming ownership and getting revenue from the PPC, it's mainly only shit that's coming up to auction, so don't expect there to be anywhere as much action as snapnames. At least most of the snapnames partner registrars put everythng into the auction rather than pinching the best stuff beforehand. Thanks also for letting your resellers know about this upcoming change to auction policy. That was sarcasm, by the way. The only thing I've received mentioning it is your reply to my first post on this mailing list.
