So I sold a domain a few weeks ago for $40 on a popular online domain marketplace. Anyway, I contacted the winning bidder several times in an attempt to get him to send the PayPal money for the domain. Sure enough, after about a week I get the money. All good so far. Anyway, I then emailed this person again and asked for his account number and transfer authorization code so I could push the domain to him. Free push, no strings attached, just part of the sale. No answer. I’ve now tried about 10 times through PM and email combined and have not heard back. I even looked up some of his domains through WHOIS and emailed him at those addresses. No answer. So to make a long story short, I have his $40 and I’m sitting here twiddling my thumbs while I wait for him to get back to me. I guess this is better than waiting for payment, or even worse, paying and never getting the domain I bought, but knowing how annoying that is, I’m confused as to why he hasn’t contacted me asking for the domain. I know I would be all over it, but, I guess it is only $40. Either way I’m planning to push it to him once he contacts me with the info. I just found this situation kind of funny because he paid for it already.

So yes, I’ve dropped the ball on the “daily updates”. Became overwhelmingly busy with some other things and sort of stopped blogging here altogether. Somehow readership has picked up though while I was gone, and after getting several emails from people wondering what had happened I have decided to be a bit more active on this blog once again. I can’t say for sure whether it will be a daily thing or not, but I’ll certainly try to get more than one blog post in every three months like this last break has been!
So, hopefully everybody has been well and thanks to the few who have continued to read this blog even though the latest post has been the same for quite a while now. Seems like a few of you should have emailed me sooner but hey I’m back for the time being and that’s all that matters.
