failure
my story, cuz i'm pissed right now, heh
My lastname i was gonna register just so I could put some family things on it. Yeah, wasnt taken last month, put it off because my local funds were kind of low, and I considered it an optional exspense. Well just checked it, of course, someone registered it June 14th. Yay for me
moral of story is, reg the domain now, its not worth waiting

What was the domain? That's happened to me a few times too. Sometimes it makes me think sites keep track of waht domains people look at and if there's high interest, they register them themselves...

i'd rathe rnot post it because then it gets linked and since I emailed the person who registered it, since it says domain for sale on main page, and since this forum has a high pr, don't need to make domain have one too cost me even more.

remcom, I agree with your previous post 100%. Never wait if the domain you want is available. I hate the domain squatters who try to hold out for cash. Even if you have to pay NetSol the full amount.. it's better than missing out.

If you use Godaddy to check a domain and don't register it right away, it usually gets registered by one of those places who want lots of money for it.

well I do have my own domain registration service. heh, I just got done talking to the guy. He appearently registered it for a client, who might not need a website anymore. (says company might be going out of business). So I'll see, and other tld's would be ok, but if i'm gonna regiter my lastname i'm gonna take them all, lol.

I reckon he should just give you it for $10 out of good faith. Any more for your name is just him being an a$$hole
