oh yeah SL they wanted to give away all that cash before they went belly up and the courts got involved?
cause they are such civic minded folks? are you serious, they are bottom feeders who just could not play by the rules the rest of us strive to do.
do you not realize how your theory comes across?
What’s next,the quivelent of women and children first is what you are going to say as the robber barons get in to the life boats and slip away under the cover of their largess?
Signing auld lang sine as all the little people do what?

I never waive my rights ever, nada, zip, bupkiss, especially where there is a pick pocket around like mr brady seems to have been for what 5 yrs? And an estimated 50-k people?
As when so many people raised questions about the goings on and the company seemed to have never taken a moment to respnd to those concersn, then sold the compnay and took profits no doubt?
How utterly tidy for them all?
Yes indeed take your rightful rebate, why even take the revised rebate as well, the Nixonian cleansing of the history data now there boys and girls is a piece of work?
I keep reading form you folks that write here about how up front every one has been but I never read how you realize how many people were duped by your industry and what is to be done about this, so far as I am concerned most pof you are parasites who drive up the cost of doing business with your little cottage industry, as one of your own made he and his cohorts a handsome harvest.

It seems that any upcoming developments will be in the form of further action by Snapnames and/or Nelson Brady.

At this point – as John Berryhill mentioned in Rick Schwartz’s blog – to be offered cash and be asked to sign an agreement that *might* not be denying us further action in the future – seems like a non-brainer.

Acro,
Very well stated. Coupled with the bankruptcy protection possibility, that’s exactly why I mailed the paperwork the day that Snapnames sent the rebate email.

Figured they must want to clear out as many potential class action participants as soon as possible. Meaning the checks should be sent out quickly. We’ll see.

I’m owed a really minor amount … and since we have a year to accept this offer, I’m going to hang loose and see what else develops during that time, rather than grab the cash right away. This seems like a common attitude.

That’s the catch22, unfortunately. I hope Snapnames steps in and makes it easier to resolve such cases.

It’s what I said, not only maybe I have been scammed but now it’s also me who must spend time to check it.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr … NO COMENT.

The email was sent to Snapnames account holders that were affected by the bidding of “halvarez” – the rebates will take a while to be processed. You need to examine all the past auctions and see if halvarez pushed up the auctions that you won, ending as the 2nd bidder. If the ended 3rd or lower at an auction you won, Snapnames does not consider this a refundable auction.

This remember me these rebates some brands give in the supermarket and where you get the money only if you contact them by postal mail. As a result most never do it and pay the product full price.
Maybe they owe me my Xmas gift, mayb no, I don’t know. But I think the minimum is put it highly visible when a member log in SnapNames.
Everybody know it takes several weeks to get a response from the SnapNames team!
