I have a domain that I want real bad, and it expired in Oct 2000!
It seems that I can bid a minimum bid of $300 from the whois. It
feels unfair that I was able to get the .org which was prevously held
by the same people that have/had the .com.
What can I do to get it free for registration?
Best 'net regards,
Joe
