    one of the domains that i want to register have expired on 25th June,
    but it's still not available to register,
    if i pay for the Godaddy backorder service,
    does it mean that i can buy it immediately?

    If the previous registrar was godaddy and no other guys backorder the same domain through GD, the answer is Yes.

    Otherwise NO

    "Schlund + Partner" is the leading registrar in Europe, the company belongs to "1&1 Internet AG"..

    Try to use Pool.com (need $60 to auth your account) SnapNames ($1 to auth) and GoDaddy (about $20)
    If you win, at GoDaddy you will not pay anything
    At Pool.com you'll pay $60, if u're only backorder domain, and it's going to auction, if there's more than one person who want't.
    The same at SnapNames, but price $59 for domain.

    SN and Pool has more "backorder power"

    I wouldnt go via godaddy backorder service, I have used it a few times now and never once gotten the domain - they just dont do it fast enough.
