a name I backordered some time ago, came up in private auction

someone outbid me for the name

I was glad, because I had changed my mind and forgot to delete the order.

so, moral of this story is


go check your backorders and make sure the names still appeal to you


or you may catch some shit you no longer want.

On the occasion, I have been pleasantly surprised that a backorder placed years earlier had finally been fulfilled, the domain having been abandoned after a few years :)
Patience pays in this game :)

quite often the opposite is what happens. you did want to get the domain on a backorder but the registrar auctioned it off before and someone else won it. so they get the name and not you.
happy to see in biggie's situation that happening suited him just fine.
