What are the best options for registrars and marketplaces that do not partner with Dan or Afternic?
I've had to deal with unauthorized listings too many times on Dan and Afternic.
My previous registrar was unable to control the many Afternic FT requests that kept appearing despite deleting all my domains from both Dan and Afternic. So that was a strong factor in leaving them and moving my domains elsewhere. And I am not interested in doing business with any of the 100+ partners that have not bothered to check that the actual owners (or their agents) authorized the listing.
My current registrar has been able to stop that nuisance, but appears helpless when it comes to advocating removal of the unauthorized domains that keep showing on Dan, Afternic and GoDaddy---despite verifying ownership repeatedly. And they are a partner for Afternic/Dan, which makes them far less appealing to me.
So I really would like to know if there are any notable alternatives out there, especially for registars that have their own independent marketplaces? Sedo and Daaz appear to be independent marketplaces, but are there any well-established registrar-marketplace combos that might be good options.
