I am a bit confused with this one domain e-vi.org I would like to catch it. As I understand, it become available after around 5 days from the point when domain enter "Pending Delete" state (5 days from last update usually). However for this domain Last Updated On:25-Dec-2009 22:09:22 UTC Expiration Date:18-Nov-2010 08:22:54 UTC Status: PENDING DELETE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE If it was updated on 25 december - it should be already released. And also why expiration in late 2010? Full whois here
Ya that's funny. At first I thought the owner must have renewed but the statuses are completely saying a different story. I wonder why it has 3 different statuses.
Somewhere between 75-80 days from the expiration date is the actual drop date. Based on that it should be real soon.
It's a bit different with .org domains. Last time I got an expired .org domain it was about 45 days after the expiry date
Thanks for the your explanations! However what about whois - is it some kind of bug in whois? I mean expiration in future, last update 34 days ago and 3 domain statuses Status:CLIENT HOLD Status:HOLD Status: PENDING DELETE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE
