Failed to acquire domain name

[jmalinie]

We attempted to secure the following domain names:

didim.com

...as they were released by the registry, but the attempts were unsuccessful. We're sorry that we were unable to acquire these domain names. We have thousands of other great names available - you can click on the domain names above to see similar domains in our inventory.

Snapnames usually does best for dropping domains but Pool & Namejet are also catching domains. So it can help to backorder at multiple places.
But there are also private catchers like Andrew Reberry. Catching a dropping domain is never a sure thing.

Didim...be glad you didn't waste $5k on it. The proper word is Didyma.
