    Very soon dp will be listed in scammers paradise.

    my last two experiences bidding for sites have been interesting to say the least.


    I bid for a site then the owner kept on pushing how many bids he'd had and never replied to anyone. Then I asked when the site sale would end and I was told 48 hours later. Guy kept quiet after the 48 hrs.
    I had forgotten about the site sale then the guy pm's me after another 48 hrs to tell me I won. I mean that's what you call bait and switch.

    Next experience was being asked to bid, then I bid then the owner is somehow going somewhere and we never see him again.

    Trying to buy sites here is a joke and since I've only talked about sites I can only imagine what other people are going through.

    Someone writes content then is not provided the content.

    DP owners, you might have stickies warning your members but as long as you are running this, you are responsible to the point where you are liable.

    Very soon ,you will start losing serious webmasters and I for one will never bid for another site here again .

    another fucking wanna be lawyer :rolleyes:

    Stupidity is not against DP's TOS, nor is the right for people to change their mind about selling something.

    is that a promise you'll never come back? :D

    Sad to hear that you had bitter experiences on DP... but where could we not... every where there +ives and -ives so you can't really claim the whole DP for it...

    as we have some good webmasters and serious business people also who are making a good business out here... so be positive and try to find who is good and whose not...

    hope you have better experience next time...

    Mods and admins do not get involved in transactions, good or bad, between members. That's clearly stated in the FAQ.
