The auction critic has arrived.
They switched from phpProBid to RScript since the last time I looked at them...which means that all of the Rscript related glitches that Wagglepop sellers complained about will also be present on PlunderHere (and every other site running the same software).
The private domain registration annoys me too (Auctionbytes is also annoyed by private WHOIS) just like WP's private registration annoys me and for the same reasons.
In terms of infrastructure, they actually have less than WP because there are 16 other sites hosted on that same IP address:

Hi
I am the owner of PlunderHere and all those domains you posted above are my domains and a couple of them are friends/family members. Some of those are projects my kids work on and I am sorry I must request that they not be posted in a public manner like this. I also stand behind my right to keep my domain information private. I do not allow my personal information to be displayed on my domains whois for my saftey. Not because I have anything to hide, but because I have a family and well people like to snoop and cause trouble.
I am sorry that many have experienced what they have with WagglePop. I am not fully sure what all everyone has experienced cause I don't keep up to date on it. Please also know that WP is using an outdated version of the rscript and not the current version. Also I have a programmer that has been hard at work fixing and addressing bugs and/or requested features as they come in. In fact we just released a bunch of great features and much needed bug fixes. We have more on the list for future upgrades to the site. We even have a wonderful Power Lister making listing on the site much faster.
I have no issue with providing anyone information that contacts me and requests it. I just hope you can understand my desire to keep my information private. I do realize there are people that use the fact of someone not displaying their whois information as a reason to register or not to register on a auction site. I am willing to take that risk because the safety and security of my family comes first.
When I first started working on PlunderHere people began to find ways to cause trouble for me, and yes that is sad to say that people do these things but they do. I have put a lot work and money into PlunderHere, maybe not as much money as some other sites, but I continue to keep adding and enhancing and most importantly at PlunderHere we LISTEN. I was a eBay powerseller for many years and wanted to start a site to have the member's voice heard again and not forgotten.
If you would like to take a moment to read my founding letter from when I started PlunderHere please read it here:

I will end with kindly asking that you please remove that list of domain names. My server is a dedicated server and I have it hosted under my 4comhosting.com domain. I hope I don't sound harsh, I just panic'd when I saw my kids domain names listed in manner where people will be going and further investigating on them.
