question Does it work to let a domain expires and buys it again before anyone else does?

[postscripter]

Hi.
I have a few domains names with expensive nTLD, they will expire today and was wondering since registration is much cheaper than renewing. Is it doable to let them expire and then buy them back? will it work? or will people buy them before me.. can i time it? i know it expires tomorrow, but then i think there is grace period for me to renew?? it will be locked for new registrations? but until when am not sure?

I have never bought expiring domains, but I know most domainers here buy expired domains.. probably through some service that notifies them of expiry???

Domain names are on namecheap

by now am regretting my decision to renew. this will be the last year if not sold i wont renew anymore.

Most of the time renewing nTLD is waste of money.
Some nTLD's have low renewal prices. Even if those cheap nTLD's also are not worth to renew most of the time, I usually renew them anyway as the cost is low.
