...let a domain expire to realize later on that it was registered by a big and well known company in all extentions, including other countries extensions?
It just happened to me and I am really not happy about it!
I'll get over it, I guess!
No, never had
that (as far as I know) but once I was gonna let expire a pair of two .COMs, and while they were in pending delete, Enom called (!) me asking if I had any plans to renew the domains (weird phonecall, that). So I figured I better say yes, and they said "Oh OK, never mind" and that was the end of the conversation.
So, then I figured "Hey, that's weird, why would they call me asking me that?", so I immediately renewed the names -which luckily was still possible- and then a couple of months later I sold the pair for a sum in the mid $xxxx after someone inquired about them, making me an offer.
That was cool! :D
Best,
Rob
