    this has happened a few times to me too... I thought I had a couple nice names...

    usually if its to good to be true probably a glitch. now if I find a gem I kinda know in advance but i still go for it. happens through other registrars too not just GoDaddy.

    .
    Buying .ca domains pm with pricing, will reply ..., thx

    What the hell is going on here? Anyone know?

    This happened to me in 2002 when I thought I was registering fact.com at register.com

    it also happened at registerfly when attempting to register ll.co.uk to learn that the names were unregisterable after showing them sold to me in all sections by the domain llisting

    Reality check: if you think you can hand-register a $xx,xxx domain in the year of our Lord two thousand and nine, you need to wear your "newb" sticker with pride.

    If you increase the pagination number, it's still 1 page

    Sometimes with GoDaddy, you have to logout and log back in to see the domain.
    However, sometimes I have "registered" a domain that was already registered, only to get a "touch luck - it's already registered" email a few hours or days later.

    I agree with Acro, if youve been doing this a while and think you are hand reg a $15k name, I mean cmon... dont be so suprised to later find it was actually registered for the last 10 years

    "I couldnt believe it I registered car.com and bike.com both for $7 wow was I lucky"
    Cmon now.

    I was showing my friend how DRT works and I typed in names like sex.com, newyork.com, etc.. and they all came back as available. So we both went bug eyed and went off to reg them only to have GD show them as unavailable. Almost had a heart attack
