    dont assume you are the only one. Just watch the auction...I have occasionally had a situation where I thougth I was the only one, and then at the last minute, a bidder ...waiting ...comes and starts bidding.

    POOL IS CRAP....

    anyway where in my pool account does it show how many people has backordered the domain. is the backorder a private auction or public?




    unlike namejet it show how many people have backordered the same domain. then it enter a private auction for 3 day.

    just switch the company you backorder with...don't waste your time getting fired up about a backordered domain.

    GoodLuck

    It only means you were the best/first bidder when the auction started.

    You can see how many bidders are in your auction somewhere on Pool however
    Looking for good FRENCH names !

    Yeah...I prefer to loose the name than to use Pool...My experience has been nothing but bad with them. Frankly, I have found that they are not that good of a drop catcher anyway unless you alert them that U want the name...just let it drop...and get it.

    I backordered a name at Pool on Friday, 1/2 hour before the 2PM ET deadline, but somehow I didn't get into the auction for the domain.

    So I sent them several emails over the weekend about it, but still haven't heard back yet, and the auction will be over in a couple of hours.

    Very frustrating. Good thing there are several backorder alternatives out there.
