You can backorder it if it's set to expire soon (I've done that with GoDaddy - they lock you in for 90 days after you use their service to register).
You can use a service like afternic's assisted offers: http://www.afternic.com/uoffer.php http://www.afternic.com/uoffer.php
or you can TM the name and see if a lawyer's letter will convince them that they should hand over the domain, although that's sort of evil and it didn't work out well for Nissan (http://www.nissan.com http://www.nissan.com).
Or yeah, contact the owner directly, that's an easy way to figure out if they're interested, although any interest immediately makes the psychological value of the domain go way up for the owner.
- aneesh 19y agothanks!
- DarrenStuart 19y agoa word of caution I back ordered on my old employers site that went out of business. no one wanted it so I used a company to make sure I got it and suprise suprise someone else got it and I was offered it at an inflated rate. I told them no thanks. you could try and buy it via proxy using godaddy. first I would try the direct approach myself personally.
