Snapnames.com - worth it?
 

I just paid for 5 expired domains at snapnames.
Just wonder how fast they are when the names become free.

Real fast. But it's still a matter of being lucky.

Don't discount some of the lesser expensive sources too if the names are not in high-demand enough that someone else didn't put a snapnames back-order on it. You might be able to grab the names for $8.75 each at Namewinner for example, or $9.99 at Expirefish, etc. If its a good name though, don't let Snapnames be your only option. Cover all of the other options too, especially the ones that don't require payment unless they successfully fetch the name for you.

I would suggest expirefish.com
I got a few nice domains through them. Though they are affiliated with registerfly.com. I know a few people have had problems with regfly but I've been using them for a while and havent had any.

what Brujah said. Of course if some of the domain experts like ultsearch wants the domain you want forget it. He'll get it whatever you do.

We had a 0% success rate.

We now have about $300 odd in snapnames credits, that will NEVER be used.

Not impressed really.

Backov, ICQ me.. those credits aren't wasted yet.

I used snapnames and it worked well. If the domain is registered at netsol.com you're gauranteed to get it if the current registerant allows it to expire.

No luck involved. If it expires it's yours.

there are a bunch of them out there:

www.dropwizard.com
www.expirefish.com
www.dropking.com
www.dropmart.com
www.grabnames.com
www.namefox.com

alot of them you only have to pay for if they get the name for you.
