question Current Tucows expiration flow

[TLDNIC]

Hi all,

wondering if anyone knows what the current domain expiration flow for Tucows domains is?

All threads I've found on this appear to return outdated information. Latest note I've seen (Dec 11, 2017) is that the names go through GoDaddy auctions before dropping (source).

However, I'm checking GoDaddy auctions daily for a name that expired on August 7th and it does not show up anywhere. Checked Namejet as well just in case (this flow was in place between May 9, 2017 and Dec 11, 2017).

It's 31 days now and the name has neither surfaced, nor renewed.

Anything I may be missing here? Does it take longer than 30 days after expiration to appear on GoDaddy?

thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to shed some light on this.

Tucows domains normally go through Godaddy auctions and the auctions usually end 30-35 days post expiration.

Thanks for the note.
Interesting, this name appears to be an exception then. I guess I'll have to wait for the drop then.
