I want to buy a domain and its registration "expired" 3 months ago but its still showing on whois checks - when can i reg it?
 
what do you mean it is showing 'expired'?
there is no such state.

there is redemption period, and pending delete.
expired=you can reg it now.
Perhpas you mean the expiration date shows it expired 3 months ago?
Still though, in that case, it should be available, unless it says regsitry hold (i.e. for 2 letter .orgs)

roughly allow 40 days after expiration, add another month for redepmtion and 5 days for pending delete (very roughly)
 
Record last updated on 2004-01-14.
Record expires on 2005-01-28.
Record created on 2002-01-28.

Thats what allwhois tells me...
 
it should have dropped.
assuming it is a verisign name.
we are currently in the February 6 area.
in theory, a domain that expired Feb. 6, 2005 is dropping today.
