    Altneratively: You’re spending that $12 to register a well known corporate site that just changed domains and their old domain is up for sale.

    You buy the old domain, throw up a site that looks like the old site, and now you have hundreds of thousands of people using your site as though it was the real one and any information they put in the site is yours.

    Plot twist:

    Private equity buys your registrar and jacks up the renewal price 5x.

      Double-twist-back: it’s not under a special TLD, so you can transfer it to another registrar.

        It’s too close to expiration for a transfer. 😔 givemoney.gif

      Honestly even if I did I’d preserve the page as is, beautiful

        It’s literally all I wanted to do when I saw the .bond TLD came up for registration.

          Oddly it doesn’t load in Firefox but works fine in Chrome. Firefox shows this error:

            Ah, I wonder if it’s something with the Wasabi S3 hosting. I’ll check into it.

          You can click accept. I think they didn’t force redirect to https

      Just 3.3 cents per day seems pretty reasonable

    Never give up the domain. I’ve let several go that I wish I still had. They only get more valuable, like real estate.
