The backorder service Pheenix.com is adding a Seller’s Platform and increasing prices of backorders.
Here are the highlights of an email we received about the changes:
Escrow.com and Pheenix.com are now partners.
Yes you heard right. Two of the most trusted and innovative companies in the domain industry have now joined forces.
Escrow.com and Pheenix.com are now officially partners.
In the coming months, you’ll see the benefits of this partnership through our new platform for SELLERS.
SELLER Platform
I’m pleased to announce our new SELLER Platform. :
1. You list all the domains you want to sell without the need to ask us. That’s right. You are in control of what domains you want to sell and can sell them anytime without the need to contact us to approve the domains.
2. Zero Day payouts. This is pretty much unheard of in the industry. As soon as we secure payment from the BUYER, payment is sent directly to your account which you can make purchases and withdraw from.
3. Your own auction page. All SELLERS have their very own dedicated auction page located at: www.pheenix.com/[public_name] . You can use this to promote your very own auctions.
Here are some sample auction pages from our SELLERS:
https://www.pheenix.com/JONAS
https://www.pheenix.com/TradeMeDomains
https://www.pheenix.com/naveen
https://www.pheenix.com/fro2
4. Free Escrow!
The types of domains that are selling well on Pheenix are:
LLLL.com
LLLL.net
LLL (any extension)
Short Numerics
Keywords
What sets us apart for BUYERS’s?
Get your domains in minutes without the need to work with the SELLER to PUSH/TRANSFER.
We know how important your time is. It’s a big hassle to coordinate with the SELLER to PUSH/Transfer domains once you purchase them. That’s why we’ve eliminated this entire step from the process for you.
Our system will perform any PUSH/Transfer automatically once the domain is sold without your involvement so that you secure your domains in minutes.
If you like a particular SELLER? Now you can follow your favorite SELLERS and get notified automatically when they list new domains for sale.
You can find our all Member Auctions www.pheenix.com/auctions under ‘Auctions > All Auctions > Members’.
New pricing for backorders.
Due to increased costs, beginning November 15, 2016, pricing for Gold backorders will increase to $28.99 and Super Savers to $16.99. Top and XYZ will increase to $5.99. This is substantially lower than our competitors pricing which is more than double our price.
They don’t catch SH*T, increasing back order fees again for a platform that only catches what nobody else backorders, no thanks.
I placed supersaver backorder once, and they didn’t even bother to catch the name, I hand registered it after I checked the daily reports.
two price increases in a year, no thanks pheenix.
How can they do zero day payouts when Escrow.com takes up to a month after receiving payment to release it to the Seller? I don’t think Pheenix realizes how understaffed Escrow.com is. Pheenix is in for an unpleasant surprise.
