They definetly do drop but you will find dozens of people with you to bid against - So you better have deep pockets. I think as prices are going up some registers will start to keep them for themselves if they can.

These are a few .coms I have seen drop - Good luck you'll need it !

ovn - $6,500
rod - $30,250
twm - $8,864
cjd - $ 5,200
sji - $ 4,400
yol - $ 5,600

MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!!!!

The chance of being the only one to backorder any LLL.com is between 0 & 0 :hehe:

The chances of being the only one to backorder any 3-character.com (all letter or not), at any of the major backorder services approaches 0%

#1) Just becuase it is in backorder lists or listed on drop services, doesn't mean some smart owner didn't renew at the last second, days after the backorder service saw it about to drop and added it to their list, being willing to pay sometimes $200 or more in pending-delete-status renewal fees.
#2) As gazzip mentioned, the registrar or registry never dropped it, holding it for themselves to resell or auction. NetworkSolutions (partner of SnapNames, and sadly the .com & .net registry) is notoriously known as crooked for doing this very thing.
Until the whois updates universally, the backorder service has no way of knowing either of these happened.

IF you are saying it just disappears from your back-order list itself, prior to drop, send a nifty little complaint to the back-order service asking why

Are there any reasons to backorder if we know we don't have the deep pockets to go into auctions?
