    The domain name photoing.org is now in a 10-day auction at Sav, a major domain name registrar:
    www.sav.com/auctions/details/4227971/photoing.org

    The starting price is $10.75, which includes a transfer fee that transfers the domain to the auction winner's Sav account and renews the domain to March 31, 2025. You need a Sav account to take part in the auction.

    Photoing.org looks like a category-defining name for the photography world, as "photoing" is the gerund of the verb "photo" which means "to photograph", as in: "I'm photoing you!" And ".org" is a common suffix that signifies objectiveness, no commercial affiliation and community friendliness. A related example is worldphoto.org, the domain name for the World Photo Organisation that hosts the annual World Photo Contest sponsored by Sony.

    Is this the same domain name you first tried to sell for $1000.00 at

    dprevived.com/t/dpdiscussdpralumniphotoingorg-closed-and-domain-for-sale/4700/

    Now the starting price is only $10.75?

    Starting from the lowest possible price (in this case, it's the transfer fee, as the domain is currently at Porkbun, another domain registrar) is Sav's auction style. It makes people feel the current auction price is built up in a solid way.

    Which also means, if you're lucky, you can get it for only $10.75 if there is no competition...

    I'll take that as a yes to my question -

    Now I'm pretty sure you are one of the worst readers.

    He alerted us that the site was down and the Url freed.
    I do not see a word about "buy it"

    ( thanks for the link )

    Danno,

    What does it matter? Don't try and stir things up.

    I was just curious because I'm not sure why a new thread was started instead of just continuing with his original thread.

    Correct: no mention of "buy it" in both threads

    The second thread alerts us that the URL is now in auction 'cause nobody wanted it for 1 thousand.
    Quite astounding, isn't it ?

    ( your saying means: he owns the URL and he is trying to sell it )

    Maybe English isn't your native language because it appears you didn’t correctly understand the question I asked the op.

    The op understood it and has effectively answered it.
