I just got an email from Namejet.com that effective sometime today their “promotional pricing” of $39 minimum on backorders on Pending Delete domain names is ending.
The new minimum backorder for Pending Delete domains will now be $69.
“This is being done as part of a broader initiative to increase our drop-catch efficacy and to improve the overall customer experience on NameJet by better helping you obtain the dropping domains that you want.
All $39 backorders placed before the change will still be honored, but once the change is implemented you will no longer be able to put in bids below the new $69 minimum.”
The price increase will take place within the next few hours so if you have any domain names in pending delete your planning on backordering on Namejet you better put them in like now.
Namejet minimum pricing will now match Snapnames.com minimum pricing for pending delete domains.
“This is being done as part of a broader initiative to increase our drop-catch efficacy and to improve the overall customer experience on NameJet by better helping you obtain the dropping domains that you want.”
oh man, that was funny.
