question Domain reserved - What does this status mean on who is data ?

[SHINOJ G.S]

The domain in question is a .IO

Status : PendingDelete

Then I see this status : "Domain reserved"

what is a reserved domain ?

It is reserved by the registry. It will later be auctioned off to the highest bidder. .me and .io are known to do that..

ok..but the same is available for registration on Name.com now ..how ?

Must be some glitch. Sometimes domains show as available or without premium prices but later on the amount gets refunded back. Check if it is available on 2 or 3 more registrars then only register it...

it seems to be a common issue with .IO
just checked some more pending delete .IO domains ..all RESERVED

@SHINOJ G.S Did you purchased a backorder on a 'domain reserved' domain?
