Can I change nameservers of my domain while its "buy locked"

Last Friday i've bought a domain with Dynadot, but in my control panel in front of my domain I see the "lock" icon,which signed "buy lock will be removed after Feb 12 2013". What does it mean? Can I change its name servers before the mentioned above date?

Yes, certainly.  The 'buy lock' is similar to the 'auction lock' in that it prevents the domain from being moved to another account or Registrar as a protection against unauthorized or fraudulent payments.  You are free to manage your domain and its settings during this time.  

What is the "Domain Sale" process for your Marketplace?

Our Marketplace has many domains listed for sale. Our "Domain Sale" process is structured to help potential buyers purchase the domain they want immediately without the hassle of contacting the seller directly. This benefits the seller too since it helps them sell more domains with less work. Here's how it works:

  1. A seller lists a domain for sale at a specific price in our Marketplace.
  2. An interested buyer sees this domain for sale and decides to buy it. He/she adds the domain to their shopping cart, checks out, and submits payment.
    • If the domain is registered with another registrar, the domain transfer fee will be displayed on the domain listing page and added to the final price.
  3. Our system automatically moves the domain to the buyer's Dynadot account so they can use the domain immediately. The domain will stay on a "Buy Lock" status for 30 days. This prevents the buyer from moving the domain to another Dynadot account or transferring the domain to another domain registrar.
  4. The sale proceeds are credited to the seller's Dynadot account (minus a 10% Marketplace commission fee) after the processing period ends.

NOTE:

  • Dynadot marketplace commission fee is 10% of the sold price. There is no listing fee at this time.
  • The processing period will take 5-7 days.
  • The sale proceeds are credited as Dynadot account credit, but can be paid out on request.
