Expired domain question

[Rochard]

I've been watching a domain for some time and it just expired two months ago... But it's available for purchase. When does it become available for purchase?

Obviously if it's available for purchase then it's available now.

Did you vape too much this morning?

I do not vape. Or do drugs. Or even drink.

The domain name expired and should be available for purchase.

My question is how long after a domain name expires can you purchase it?

[mechanicvirus]

Probably depends on the registrar, did you email them?

Grace and redemption period for .com is typically 60-85 days after expiry date, allowing current owner to recover it. After this, providing it is not backordered or registrar keeps, then it will be available to the general public.

According to rOCHARD it's available now.

Yea kinda confusing, it's like "hey there's a gallon of milk at the store, should i buy it?" then you're like "yea" and the dude is like "well actually it's on the back shelf in the loading dock but i was told i can buy it".

Is it available or not? Your two sentences are contradicting.

Schrodinger's domain name.

After 80 days keep checking the domain status. It will be in pending delete for 5 days before getting deleted and available for purchase.

The registrar likely decided to hang on to it and offer it for sale at an inflated price rather than allow to proceed into redemption and follow the usual process..

If you want to message me, I should be able to help. I have a tool that estimates the drop date (and have been pretty accurate) and how many people are watching it. Don't worry, I won't buy it!

If you really want to pickup expired domains, use services that nab them up like SnapNames.com

Thank you for this.

For GoDaddy its after 60 days or some shit like that. Usually registrars release them after around 30ish, but some renew em themselves the sneaky bastards.

is it at pending delete status yet?

[ronjones]

It generally takes 45-90 days for an expired domain to be available for purchase as I have observed. The period depends on the registrar it seems.
