Do all expiring GoDaddy domains go to auction..?

[JohnnyNight]

Hi All,

Wondering if all expiring godaddy domains go to auction..

I'm looking at a domain that expired on 9-28...

That would seem to indicate the domain would drop and be available to register on November 3 or 4..

Does godaddy hold onto domains longer than 65 days after expiration..?

Thanks for any ideas..

did you mean December 3 or 4 ?



it may have already gone through the auction process. what expiration date does it have?

Hi cdboard,

Yeah sorry, I meant December 3 or 4...

So the expiration date is September 28...

The Whois info says it is in redemption period...

I've been checking godaddy for the last week and have not seen it in auction..

But I guess that's a possibility...

Do you know for certain if every godaddy domain does go to auction if not re-registered by its owner..

Thanks

Actually gd says in terms of service if not renewed a domain "may" go to auction..

Didn't I see you at Hialeah Park racetrack the other day..???

Hairdo, chains and sunglasses look very familiar....

the auction period would be over.

now, you wait to see if it is redeemed or transferred.
