Another NameFind auction takes place this month, with more possibly on the horizon.

GoDaddy (NYSE: GDDY) is planning another auction of its NameFind inventory following a successful auction in December.

The next auction will start June 13 at 12:30 ET and run until June 20.

Like last time, all names have no reserves but start at various prices. In other words, they all start at their reserve price. I prefer this model to reserve auctions in which you have no idea if your bidding is futile.

Unlike last time, all lots will start and end on the same day rather than having new auctions start each day.

Close to 400 domains are up for grabs.

The auction last time had a handful of three letter .coms. There aren’t any this time, but there are two two-number .org domains, ten three-number .org domains, and a handful of three-letter .orgs.

One word .com domains include stung.com, focusing.com, and italics.com.

Overall, the list of .com domains doesn’t seem as strong as last time, but there are many great domains in the auction. The complete list is available here (.xls).

GoDaddy is still testing this format and is considering allowing other sellers to submit their inventory for future auctions.
