There was an article on Sitepoint I recently read about expired domain names. I forgot to renew my domain on the first of January this year, and a couple weeks later was able to renew it. I assume, due to the grace period. This is a little outdated but may give you some insight. http://www.sitepoint.com/article/period-farce-exposed Thanks, Perry Gerenday www.webinitiative.net The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: wdvltalk@lists.wdvl.com To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk http://www.wdvl.com ___ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.

Just what I'm after, found the gory details here:
http://www.nic.uk/registrants/detagged/
That page basically says "you're going to have to wait a loong time".

That's about the size of it. Thanks for the info.

Re: [wdvltalk] Registering an existing domain
I think if you look at the Nominet Site, buried in there is a note that you can record an interest in a name that lapses with a view to doing what you want. If it wasn't there, then try www.namesco.co.uk - I've used them for some registrations. I know I saw it somewhere!! But since it is renewable every two years and the existing owner has had it for six - you might be lucky!! Seems they don't want someone (your client?) to get hold of it!!

Re: [wdvltalk] Registering an existing domain
Can't remember the exact terminology as I'm up to my neck in XML and really
crappy parsers but I think after a domain lapses there is a certain period
("detagged" I think) where the domain is shut off from the net but is still
tied to its existing owner allowing them to renew (just in case they forgot
or something). I think this state lasts for a few months.
If the domain is not re-registered by the end of this limbo state then it
comes open for purchase. Only at that stage will your client be able to grab
it.
I think...

[wdvltalk] Registering an existing domain
Hello list, We have a client who wants to try and grab a domain which is currently registered but due to expire this weekend (it's a .org.uk, FWIW). There isn't a website or any other sign of life there at the moment, and as it was originally registered six years ago we're hopeful that the owner has given up on it and is planning to let it lapse. Assuming it doesn't get re-registered this week, has anyone got any info on how we could best get our hands on it? Is there a grace period where the existing owner gets first refusal, or can we just register it on Monday morning like any other domain?
