Thanks. They've renewed it for another two years, and I've already failed to grab it through a backordering service once (despite it being expired for what seems much longer than the reasonable renewal time, several months), is there something different about NameJet/SnapNames? I don't really want to wait another two years. The "join" page for Sedo doesn't work either, but do you any idea what kind of money we'd be looking at?

I tried using sedo to obtain a domain that has been parked for eight years. The initial asking price was $15,000. I countered with $150. A response came back within five minutes for $14,900. I countered with $250. The other side cancelled the negotiation. I don't trust any of the negotiation services. Call me cynical, but I suspect domain lookup service to be in bed with domain negotiation services and domain parking services.

  Yeah we had a similar experience recently as well, but we didn't really need that domain so we just shrugged it off. And yeah plenty of registrars etc. are definitely in bed with speculators.
