A dotcom domain I've been trying to land for years was apparently allowed to expire by the original owner on 1/29 (despite my efforts to reach him over the years with no response). The whois data changed to the infamous Enom Reactivation Period (reactivation-pending AT enom dot com). Network Solutions has shown the expiration as 1/29/13 throughout, but I've seen a couple of whois sites show the expiration as 1/29/14.
This domain went through the Namejet auction starting and expired yesterday with no bids. I've tried to place a $69 back order at Nametjet but was unable, something about missing the backorder deadline (seems a little odd). As of tonight, I can place a back order starting at a $500 bid. I also have back orders in at Pool, Snapnames, etc.
Should I just move on and not put too much effort into this, or is there still the potential of landing it when (if) it deletes? I was thinking this domain should delete soon, but I'm concerned that they are leeching onto it to try turning a profit (it hasn't exactly been a high traffic domain during the 10 years it was previously owned).
