Best for backordering?

[Justin]

I currently backorder @ pool.com, and I was wondering if there are any better places to backorder? Which backordering service have you had the best luck with?

Use SnapNames and NameWinner. Pool gets most of them, snapnames and namewinner are tied in second.

(This is all based on my experience, of course.)

If u dont care of cost, try pool, otherwise go SnapNames and NameWinner.

I find that Pool probably get the domains most of the time. But look out if you get stuck in an auction with high bidders. Namewinner used to be a bargain, until they raised their prices.

Pool, Namewinner, eNom, Snapnames in that order. And don't even bother wasting your money with GD if the name is decent.

Why did I put eNom before Snapnames? A few months ago I went through the 3 letter phase. Snapnames caught me zero! Had to sell all my Snapbacks. eNom however has been somewhat successful with 3 letters.

Pool, Snaps, NW, enom, and any WWD reseller aka GD (they've been quite good at orgs and biz from my experience especially lately) If your really desperate there's always expirefish, but I don't think those guys could catch a cold but hey miracles do happen.
You can also try dropwizard.com, domaincatcher.com, theperfectname.com, dotreg.com (DOMWISH)
hope some of these help

Go daddy has lost my past 3 trys to secure a not very competitive name........... Don't bother with them

I hope 4 is the luckey number!

 

[ExpireGuy]

Are the names dot com's DJ?
If they are I'm having the same problem with GD.
7's my lucky number. I hope I don't have to go through 6 letdowns I'm already at 5.

Pool is powerful in the snapping game. NameWinner is most user-friendly, in my opinion...

Does Galcomm.com actually work? I have one domain with them and their interface is dreadful. Is their snapping service any better?

YES... i've been looking at their "mini" auction and I see some really nice domains they grabbed... on of them is BOOK.BIZ (which was sold to a British trader for $7,000 US)

I looked at the whois of top .biz drops and I noticed that Galcomm.com grabbed them.

Yep, I agree w/ you Anthony that their interface is dreadful... yuk yuk... unprofessional web design... but they're good at snapping nowadays.
