Probably because of the economy, difficulty in connecting, some not realizing they could bid and some forgeting about the initial auction. It is back to the same problem, the auction was only reaching the "domainer to domainer" level. The circle of purchasers needs to expand. The other auctions should be further insightful of the stability of the valuation of generic domains. We will know more by thursday evening. Aren't most stocks trading off their highs right now? However, Wall St. speculates they will go up sometime in the future. When? Who knows? Otherwise, they would sell everything and go to totally cash. We might draw the same correlation to domains and their market value. I believe most of the domains went cheap.

Sure he gets something for providing the venue to Moniker, but I would hope it's not more than the standard cut he gets regardless of if he bought the domain or someone else did. @ Matt – my guess is Rick doesn’t get a full 15% commission discount.
