Yesterday, like many other holders of Snapnames accounts I received an email...
Acting under pressure from domain blogs, posts in forums and angry emails and phonecalls to support, Snapnames has re-instated access to the full domain auction history per account – going all the way back to 2004.
So it's time to compare notes.
After analyzing the data, Nelson "halvarez" Brady appears in 73% of all auctions that I...

About every other article in my news feed right now has something to do with the allegations against Nelson Brady (also known as Halvarez). After reading plenty of articles about him, I think about him in complete and utter disgust. It's as if he's the Bernie Madoff of the domaining industry. Now, Bernie Madoff got
It didn't take long for the sharks to begin circling. It's come to our attention that class action attorneys already smelling blood in the water have begun investigating the possibility of a class-action case against SnapNames.? Blim & Edelson, Chicago based class-action attorneys, have put up a website to gather up possible plaintiff names and...
SnapNames has issued rebate offers and has re-published all auction bidding history to the user's accounts, we would like to know what you are considering:
TechCrunch article questions Snap's rebate requirements.
Given the bad taste Michael Arrington's has in his mouth from his time in the domain name industry, he's laying down the heat on Snapnames and its bidding scandal. Today he wrote a second article about the scandal, saying that SnapNames' request that customers sign a waiver to get...
Full auction data now available.
Responding to requests from customers to show complete auction history in order to check for auctions against bidder halvarez, Snapnames has updated the system with complete data. Company spokesperson Mason Cole wrote:

It's a beautiful (but cold) Saturday in New York City, and I want to head out, so I will keep this post brief. Before you develop a domain name into a website, you should map out your 3, 6, and 12 month plan for the site. I didn't do this on a few of my

I've seen a number of comments on my blog and other places criticizing Snapnames for not providing the auction history for bidders prior to 2007. According to the company, in June of 2005, Snapnames limited a person's order history to 24 months prior to the date the look-up was being performed.
