domain businesses and recently organised a Domain Auction which was nothing but a joke with auctioneer indulging in shill bidding to manipulate prices / grab domains, not paying to seller whose domains were sold at the auction and a buyer who had won many
domains and paid but didn’t get the domains. </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; font: 13px Helvetica; margin: 0px 0px 13px">The following forum posts have detailed info about what happened at the auction</p>
