That sounds like name.com was squatting on your expired domain and extorted $140 from you to get it back.

- libraryatnight 6mo agoOften there's a redemption period (depending on tld i think) where the domain can be recovered. Registrars will generally charge a redemption fee during this period.
- dpark 6mo agoSome fee for this is reasonable. $140 seems something less than reasonable for most TLDs. I would think this fee should be, at most, the cost of 1 year of registration.
- libraryatnight 6mo agoYou're absolutely right, and they often blame the registry for the fee, but support for one of my domains once gave me the impression they inflate on top of the fee for extra profit.
