Hello everyone,
There is a domain name I 'd like to buy expiring in 2 days, excluding grace period etc. The domain is owned by a company selling domain names and it is a .com domain. I believe is highly unlikely to be dropped, because the selling company has listed it at a ridiculous price, but I 'll give a try to get it. The registrar of this domain is epik.com who -fun fact- claim they are the Swiss bank of domain names.
So what's my best chance of getting this domain ? After some research, I found out the following backorder domains and their costs:
epik.com -> $199 (because it's the current registrar)
snapnames.com -> $79
godaddy -> ? ($9,99 for 10 credits and then you can set as many credits you want ? )
namejet.com -> $69
pool.com -> could not create an account because the service will not accept the card I use in the internet with current balance $20, but it seems the minimum bid is $69.
So what do I do guys ? Do I use all, since they all claim to refund if not taken ? And when do I place the backorder ? Does the registrar backorder worth the risk and absence of $199 ?
Thanks for your feedback !
