Crikey! Aussie Flippa flips fees for Cyber Monday Madness!

Looks like those Australians at Flippa.com are way ahead of us Yanks, on the East coast – about 14 hours, that is. That’s why Flippa is having a Cyber Monday sale, where all listings that go live on Flippa between 8:00 am and 10:00 pm Eastern US time, will be priced half-off. Spending $14 for […]

New type of Flippa scam or old trick used on eBay?

What appears at first to be a new type of scam on Flippa – the Australian marketplace for selling domain names and web sites – is nothing more than an old advertising trick, used on eBay and other auction web sites. The seller of the domain name, Phentermine.net, listed it on Flippa with a BIN […]

A strange thing happened at Flippa the other day

Flippa.com has been in the domainer limelight recently, due to the notoriety of turning a deaf ear to removing listings of trademark domains.

Flippa-flopping: Domain attorney guest post all while trademarks are being listed

Sounds remarkably ironic that Flippa – the Australian marketplace for trading domains and web sites – is hosting a guest post by Zak Muscovitch on trademark and copyright matters.

Selling Trademark Domains: Are listing venues guilty?

A post from yesterday regarding the listing of almost 500 “facebook” domains on TDNAM caused some serious stir. It seems that not everyone agrees about a listing venue’s responsibility regarding the trading of trademark-infringing domains. Such venues include GoDaddy’s TDNAM, eBay, Flippa.com and others. Sedo and Afternic are known to pro-actively enforce the removal of […]

Flippa.com takes their ‘Flippa’ trademark seriously – Threatens to sue domainer

Flippa: Starting 2012 with yet another Trademark Violation listing

It’s the new year and it’s ridiculous that Flippa.com – the Australian domain auction platform – continues to allow obvious trademark violations on its marketplace. An example can be found here. Famous marks, like Apple’s iPhone are protected aggressively; Flippa maintains that unless the trademark holder complains, they won’t do anything. The problem is, once […]

How domain scams work at Flippa

When Flippa transitioned from the feedback system that eBay and other venues use, it opened a can of worms. Because Flippa is not a marketplace like Sedo, where transactions are exclusively handled via the venue itself, the process of cheating the system is quite simple. When a sale occurs, the seller and the buyer complete […]

Flippers flock to ‘2012 Official Countdown’ sale on Flippa

Someone has bid $60,000 on the web site 2012OfficialCountdown.com on Flippa and despite the seller’s monetary reputation, there is no proof that a prior chunky sale led to an actual domain exchange. The web site 2012OfficialCountdown.com shows signs of increased traffic only since it was listed on Flippa, making it hard to prove that its […]
