Thought Convergence announced today that Aftermarket.com has been selected as the premier auction house for the upcoming T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Down Under conference, scheduled to take place November 18-20, 2008 in Queensland, Australia. The Aftermarket.com auction will commence on November 20, 2008, beginning at 8:30 AM AEST UTC/GMT +10 hours (Nov 19, 2008, 2:30 PM PST). Those unable to join us Down Under may access and participate in the auction online at this time...
The domain submission period for this auction kicked off on Monday, October 6th. In addition to new domain submissions, all domains previously submitted but not sold at the New York Aftermarket.com auction will be considered for the upcoming Down Under auction. The submission interface is accessible now at www.Aftermarket.com.
The final auction list will feature at least 25 .AU domains in addition to a minimum of 75 competitively-priced, top quality lots. As the Aftermarket.com auction in New York confirmed, competitively-priced domains get action and move! Their critical and rigorous selection process has proven highly effective - in New York, over 50% of their inventory sold, and of those sales, more than 75% sold above the reserve price. Based on that success, they will maintain the same criteria for the upcoming auction Down Under. This time around, however, they plan to list up to 50% of the inventory at No Reserve. This formula will ensure a competitively-priced, exciting and successful auction for both buyers and sellers.
Domain submissions will be accepted through November 1st, 2008, at which time they will begin to formulate the preliminary list of domain names for auction. The initial list of at-auction domains will be available for public viewing on November 6th. The final catalog will be available online by November 14th in order to provide buyers with ample time to research auction inventory. Active online bidding will be enabled shortly thereafter.
