I wouldn't say it was stupid actually. Stupid is something that you do that most people don't do. Many of the godaddy services seem legit on first glance. That's why they sell so well. The marketing language they use is good. There are cases where someone might actually stand a chance of back ordering a domain. But when godaddy collects $15 for a domain that there is no way they are going to get for someone (like a 3 letter name as only one example) that's taking advantage of what someone doesn't know. If you want to backorder a domain use pool.com. Last I checked they don't charge anything for a backorder.
