Thank you all for your GREAT advice!

Based on your advice, I sent him an e-mail with the following:

Basically, you have four choices. I would do them in this order:

1. Contact Network Solutions (NetSol for short) right away to see if you can get it. This was recommended by folks at my domain name forum when I asked their advice. They said it is possible that NetSol paid the fee and parked it themselves for the revenue. Their phone number is 570-708-8780.

2. Do this if number 1 above does not work. This was also recommended by folks at my domain name forum. Put in a backorder for the name ASAP at http://pool.com and http://snapnames.com just to be safe. It will cost you @ $20 per place for a total of $40.

3. Wait to see if the person lets the name drop (by not paying the renewal fee). You won't know for sure until 30 - 45 days after the expiration date, though by March 3rd or 4th, we should be able to see if the expiration date has been extended. If it does not renew, it will show up on the expired names auction for Network Solutions at http://namejet.com.

4. Try to buy it back through Network Solutions Certified Domain Offer Service (https://www.networksolutions.com/dom...fied-offer.jsp). They charge a fee to contact the current owner and make an offer for you, but make it relatively easy to negotiate for a name. And they provide escrow service. That's what the person used who bought RELATIONPOINT.COM from me.

Thanks again fellow domainers! I really appreciate your help!
