I have a watch list of domain names that are well past their expiration. Today I GoDaddy-ed one of them, and GoDaddy screamed "Yessss!" and jumped up and high-fived me, then told me I better hurry up and register it, but I was already on it, because this one's a gooder. I had my list of recently-checked GoDaddy coupon codes already opened, so I entered one and prepared to become the owner of the domain for $2.17. I pressed the "submit" button, and a red box appeared saying something to the effect of "one of the items in the cart isn't available and has been removed".

I tried it again, then GoDaddy sighed and reported the domain name as being unavailable.

I changed computers, and about 5 minutes ago tried the domain name again. GoDaddy whooped and hollared, then chest-bumped me, and I went through the checkout process again, only to have the same thing happen. And now, GoDaddy reports the name as being unavailable.

Anyone else ever experience anything like this?

It is a GoDaddy glitch.

Always cross check via Whois.GoDaddy.com, or some other whois tool that is fast enough.
