    Be careful when buying expired domains that have faulty or untrue statistics that were faked. Ask for more than just how many hits the domain gets.

    buying a pr2 site is pretty useless
    no is going to pay any difference ebtween pr0 and pr2
    pr4 is when it actually starts to make a differnece in the price

    I had a not so good long-name domain so it was no renewed.

    A few weeks later, I found that such domain kept its PR3 rank and returning thousand results from major search engines and overture.

    For good or bad nobody else grabbed it after expiration so I registered it again.

    Shortly after registration, domain rank went to 0 and overture results disappeared :/

    Conclusion, never trust in rank to purchase expired domains.

    Used domains defianately leads to cut down your promotional cost to a good extent but always go for a yahoo dmoz listed domain otherwise drop the idea.
