What happens to a domain name that is unsold on snapnames auctions?

[Yofie]

usually snapnames will pick it up again and auction it cheaper then if it still goes unsold then if someone had it back ordered at godaddy they would get it, if not then most likely it gets dropped and should be available.

These is not correct information.

they test traffic, you should be able to get it on a godaddy backorder once oregannames has it. They will drop it and try and register it over and over again testing the traffic. This is the one time that godaddy will get a name unless the traffic is really good then they will tray and keep it.

Been a while since I picked up a lot of drops I used to be able to predict who would get it next....

I think actually snapnames is oregan names and then a taster will get it or soemthing I confuse my self sometimes, I am going back to mowing the grass now!

It does appear that Oregonnames is Snapnames. So they taste there own drops - nice conflict of interest there.
