Enom's Pre-Release Auctions

Discussion in 'Domain Names' started by ewex, Feb 13, 2006.

    About two months ago Enom introduced their Pre-Release auctions.
    Hopefully someone can clarify what this means exactly. Nobody seems to be talking about it.

    According to their website: "Pre-Release auctions allow you to bid on domain names expired at eNom for the chance to get the name BEFORE IT DROPS. These are names held EXCLUSIVELY at eNom that have expired. Rather than let these high-value names drop, eNom has put the names into Pre-Release auctions so that our users have exclusive access to them."

    Does this mean that if you buy a domain with high google PR from a pre-release auction the PR will not reset because the domain never actually expires? I've heard this is also the case with auctions on TDNam.com/godaddy.

    Is there any way for an invididual to do something like this--grab/renew a domain BEFORE it expires, preventing it from expring at all? What if you are an enom reseller? Could you do it through their API?

    Thanks very much.
