Acquiring agreed the sale cost, Sedo sent the purchaser an Invoice on the 1st July.

The invoice is in your title and is positioned in the buyer’s consumer account.

As quickly as the purchaser has created payment (into Sedo’s Escrow account), Sedo inquire the purchaser to make a transfer request at thier registrar or if the purchaser has an account at the domain’s existing registrar, they inquire you to transfer it to his account.

As quickly as the transfer has been finished and the WHOIS info exhibits the buyer’s title, Sedo offer you the money.

Suggestion: Include your bank particulars to your Sedo account if you want to steer apparent of Paypal charges for getting the money.
