Re: More IDN trash on Ebay

I really feel bad for the people that waste money on this crap. Even when I started out I knew there was little to 0 value in those types of domains...

Re: More IDN trash on Ebay

But how come XN--80AY3E.COM resolves into ѕам.com ??(in IE 7)

I thought that characters from different languages mixed in one word will not be resolved, but showed as punycode.

Re: More IDN trash on Ebay

Finally a place to sell all of my mistakes......
Looks like the S and A are from the Macedonian alphabet, yes, but the S is not used any longer or very infrequent. The M is a variant of the Greek letter and I dont think seen in the language.
From what I can tell

Buyer beware. I reported it to their fraud department as well. They now blackout bidders names so they
can't be alerted during the auction by other community members that they are being ripped off.
EBAY won't help, they would lose their commission on the sale.

Re: More IDN trash on Ebay

Might be hard to do
I know I have bought some real losers in idns over the years. It was my fault for buying them.
Have to do the research. Who knows what the buyers intention was. Perhaps they wanted it that much. Not sure.
