[RESOLVED] dot com pending renewal or deletion?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 05.2007

I have been waiting for this certain dot com to expire and it’s not yet available. The dot com I want to register expired on Jan. 10th, 2007 and it’s already Feb. 5th! Why is it taking so long for the dot com to expire? Is this normal?

All it says is pending renewal or deletion. Could this mean that the owner is wishing to renew? Btw, the previous owner had the domain for 10 years. Could that factor into this? Thanks for any ideas or recommendations!

@ecolodgeauthorFeb 05.2007 — Wow, nice link Leeu. According to that article, the entire process takes 75 days. So that means I get to wait roughly 50 more days. Fantastic.

Thanks again everyone for the quick responses. I finally know what to expect ?

Success!
