Hello,


The topic was changed just before i hit the submit button. I had wanted to mention the name of the domain holder but I don't feel it is wise to do so.

Okay here is the deal, I have this domain name I will like to own. It expired since over 15 days ago and I don't think he is going to renew it.

However, do you think it is wise to contact the current owner and offer them say $50 for the domain name or it is best I allow it hit godaddy auction and try to buy it from there?

While I like the idea of approaching the current owner, my worry is that he may see reasons to renew and hijack the price instead of selling to me.

What do you think?
