Why would anyone want to buy these domains at these prices is out of my head and will love to hear from you guys whats happening here

Bidder1, Bidder2, Bidder3 anonymous bidders can allow this, no set ID's to be able to track. This isn't the only marketplace either with such unethical issues. Caveat Emptor.

godaddy themselves (well, their bots) bid on their own domains to trick people into impulse buying them out of FOMO

Coffeefactoryandcafe . com isn't a bad domain even though 4 words. Also has backlinks so nothing wrong with that price.

Yes, and they hand out API's to their chosen few pals. The same gang work other platforms too.

Everyone has access to that API, not just a few chosen people

Which is better for you HostGator or ipage? These might have something to offer like GoDaddy 2023 is waving.

Well then it's a free for all to scam... lol. They must have changed the rules from a couple years ago. I do no business with them anymore, they have crappy hosting too- I recently had a client who requested I do a one page html thing for him- and the load balancing was awful- took a minute to upload on cPanel.

Totally agree with u. I am also shocked that so many shitty domains even got bids when I checked the Godday auction.

GoDaddy has been unethical for years. The extreme push of sales via ads making the common people fool.
But thy loves it, GoDaddy wins.Bunch of crapdomains, indeed!
