Buying expired domains with PR?

    Can anybody recommend someplace to find expired domains with PR?

    I already know about freshdrop, but for some reason I cannot place an order, the ordering system doesn't place a bid.

    Preferrably someplace where you can sort and filter the results like freshdrop.

    Thanks

    try justdropped.com, but i will suggest you not to buy dropped domains, because they also dropped thier PR.

    Thanks for the heads up. I was searching on Google and found some of the threads about expired domains and how they lose PR after expiring. Transfers like freshdrop I assume would be okay though? I just wish I could place an order with freshdrop, the domains still seem to be still registered and not yet dropped.

    Thanks

    Hu? Google wipes out the PR of a domain after it expires? Makes sense of course, but that sorta sucks.

    A domain needs inbound links to get the PR in the first place, since the inbound links would still be there would the PR not get built up again with the existing inbound links?

    i think its not realy that google drops the PR its because once the site gets reindexed by google and since its expired google doesn't find all the backlinks pages, so it lowers the pagerank.

    Yeah I think you're right. I remember someone mentioning that if you buy an expired domain that still has the PR you'd better search (I forget how) archives.com or something? And get something up on those old URL's before Google spiders them and doesn't find them, I think he mentioned maybe the first time it's okay if they don't find it, but if they keep coming back and nothings there then eventually you'll lose the links.
