Depending on the domain extension, the Auth-Code usually expires after 14-30 days.
To ensure that the offerer receives the purchase price promptly and that the Auth-Code doesn't become invalid, the transfer of the domain has to be completed by the buyer within 10 weekdays after receiving the Auth-Code.
In case the transfer isn't completed on time, anymondo.com will transfer the domain in its own administration on behalf of the buyer. anymondo.com will charge administration fees for at least one year according to the valid conditions when doing so.

- How can the brokerage team help me to get my desired domain?
If your desired domain might not be listed at anymondo.com, we'll be glad to help you, purchase it at the most favorable price. For this you grant a budget.
The skilled brokerage team of anymondo.com negotiates with the current domain owner, without revealing your identity. You're in a far better position with us negotiating for you.
Without the seller knowing about your interests, we can achieve significantly better sale conditions as it would be possible in an open negotiation.
Mostly domain brokers earn a commission, based on the purchase price. Therefore they have no direct financial incentive, to achieve a low purchase price.
At anymondo.com things are different: You benefit from the success commission, which is only to be paid, if we can bargain a price, which is below your budget. This would seem to be more expensive than a commission, purely based upon the purchase price. As a matter of fact, the sum of purchase price, brokerage commission and success commission is significantly lower, than the sum of purchase price and brokerage commission with your budget being maxed out. Check this example calculation.
Here you can look up our conditions.

- What's the benefit to provide categories and keywords for my domains?
Every prospective buyer is interested in certain domains. Sometimes those are pretty fixed right from the start.

Besides the obvious domains "restaurant-da-nico.com", he might also like "viva-italia.com" or "italian-food-exampletown.com", if he's from that city. He'll only be able to find these domains, if they were classified to the category "Food, Drinks & Tobacco".

Determining the price of a domain is complex. The value accumulates by the number of visitors of the domain, meaning how often it's visited, by its backlinks, meaning how many other website link to it, its age and if its name is "descriptive". Global statements are therefore not possible.
When offering a domain at anymondo.com, a minimum price is automatically proposed. This takes among other factors into account, the domain's length, its extension and if the name is descriptive.
