Selling Domain Names with Offer/Counter Offer or Buy Now Listings
You can give buyers the option to submit their own offers for your domain name through Go Daddy Auctions®. When a buyer submits an offer, you can either accept it, submit a counter offer, or push the listing to auction using the buyer's initial offer as an opening bid. There is no obligation to accept an offer.
When you accept an offer or the buyer accepts a counter offer, the sale ends. If you include a Buy Now option, the sale ends when a buyer accepts the Buy Now price or when you or a buyer accepts an offer.
If you decide to push the listing to auction, it is converted to a 7-day public auction and the buyer's offer is set as the opening bid. For more information, see What is Push to Auction?
For more information about your options for listing domain names, see Understanding Selling and Listing Options.
