Never
Mind! That's what Sedo and the .Mobi
registry have told those who bid in their latest .mobi
premium domain auction that ended in chaos December 5
when Sedo's servers |
|
crashed in the closing
minutes of the online event. Amid threats of a lawsuit
from at least one disgruntled bidder, Sedo and the
registry have decided to take a mulligan by voiding
the entire auction and what could have been
several record-breaking .mobi sales including Music.mobi
($616,000) and Games.mobi
|
|
|
($401,500). Sedo
said a do-over auction will begin January 23. Of
course this has made a lot of people who won domains in
the first auction unhappy campers. Condolences to all
involved as everyone loses in a situation like this
including the auction participants whose time was wasted
and hopes dashed and the sale organizers who got a black
eye from the system breakdown.
