For Sale no more drops, huH???

airnike764 · Feb 2, 2003

Are domains still dropping or has it stopped and its just a rumor?
Also I am following 3 domains that are on hold and were supposed to expire in january, any idea on when they will drop?

What I've heard is that there's a new 45 day grace period, so for 45 days, there are no drops. Is this right?

redemptionperiod : The registry sets this status when a registrar requests that the domain name be deleted from the registry and the domain has been registered for more than 5 calendar days (if the delete request is received within 5 days of initial domain registration it will instead be deleted immediately). The domain will not be included in the zone. The domain can not be modified or purged; it can only be restored. Any other registrar requests to modify or otherwise update the domain will be rejected. The domain will be held in this status for a maximum of 30 calendar days.
