[QUOTE="ukbackorder, post: 2292453, member: 5382"] Agreed. You tend to find the people who do well in the industry are people who honour their word and act ethically (even if sometimes we take a hit due to our own mistakes). I have seen far too many people ruin their reputation for the sake of a few hundred dollars and then quickly nobody wants to deal with them. However in this situation I think you are not bound to any particular ethos. If it was me I'd drop him a line and let him know (not that you're interested in the domain) that you noticed his domain had expired. If it then went to auction I'd bid on it with a clear conscience because at auction *someone* is going to buy it - ie he had the chance and would still be in the same boat. On a similar note many times I have contacted owners of uk domains that we'd love to have to let them know their domains are approaching drop. Sometimes they let them go - other times they renew them. I think it's a common courtesy amongst domainers. [/QUOTE]
