snap names - once again - GoFuckYourself.com

Certainly it's a great service, but the chances that you'll get the desired name when it expires are not 100% ( because some ppl have their own similar programs to catch these names ).
Did it happen also to you, that for some names you paid the "back-order" fee, but in fact you didn't get the desired domain, even if it expired... ?

I got a few domains this way... But most wer domains that nobody else wanted.

Other than snapnames, I'd suggest going to Namewinner.com too.

Hey, that rings a bell. I think I got fucked by them too, same as you. I'll never use them, or any service like that again.

so it's a kind of a lottery - when different ppl "pre-register" or "back-order" on different places the same domain because they hope it will expire ?

You never get em because there are too many competing services and these fuckers *always* get them first:

topdotz.com
publicfiles.com
roar.com
Oingo domain park....

Theres a few more and theyre ahead of the game.

Oops... did I say that.

Nevermind.
