This is completely outrageous. They charge you for a backorder, but when they get control of the domain, they advertise it then auction it off to the highest bidder rather than sell it to you?

@ Rob – but I suppose if it’s dropped after a taste you shouldn’t count on it having money traffic.

Godaddy is good at catching names that drop after they are tasted.

So, if snap or namejet doesn’t get it because there are no backorders but a taster picks it up then drops it, GD is good for picking up those drops.

I have a couple pending GoDaddy backorder credits from names that they could not catch for about 2 years now.

Yeah, what’s the normal status for a domain, 64 days after expiry?

Thanks you. And I don’t mean to hijack the comments with my personal nigglings.
