well, maybe a good move... he will have to renew it before he can transfer it to you, and there is a good chance that he will suddenly see value in it when he finds out someone wants it (and he might not even know that it is expired either)

its a gamble either way, if you think it is such a low value domain that no one will want it, you could take your chance of getting it as the only bidder in auction, but if it is half decent it might go for some money


do a search at the registrar where it is registered and see if it is already offered for sale
