I just tried to buy wow.quest 2 minutes ago and it feels like the same thing just happened to me. Between me searching and checking out it got registered:
Registrar URL: https://namecheap.com
Updated Date: 2021-03-03T14:30:25.0Z
Creation Date: 2021-03-03T14:30:20.0Z
Registry Expiry Date: 2022-03-03T23:59:59.0Z
Namecheap gave me a "Oops, looks like the domain was taken by someone else, so we removed the domain from your cart."
- divingdragon 6y agoHmm, could it be a system glitch when Namecheap tries to register the domain for you during checkout? This seems less likely to be a coincidence.
- bibinou 6y agoThe registrar is not the registrant, this just means someone bought it on namecheap.
- FreshFries 6y agoSo by your account, someone at NS tails the search log and hits "buy" when they see something nice like wow.quest?
- emddudley 6y agoDidn't say that. It's not clear to me what happened, could be a number of things. Probably coincidence. Just felt like I had the same experience as the person on Reddit. Went to buy an unregistered domain, and it got registered by someone else immediately after I searched for it.
