Redemptionperiod ?

[craigj]

Hello all,

I wonder if somebody can explain to me the redemption period and how long this lasts ?

I find it amazing, that an expired domain I want to buy, still cant be purchased, and it expired on 18-oct-2005

depends on the TLD. I believe .com/.net go to RGP for 30 days. before that they are in Registrar-Hold. After RGP they go to PendingDelete for 6 days and then finally drop.

I believe this is different for other TLDs such as .info, .us, etc so you'll have to be more specific. Also, some domains go straight to RGP sometimes.
