Which place has the best drop lists other than Exody or running the zone files yourself?

Tried pool.. but the latest list I downloaded from them seemed to be missing a couple names that showed up on other lists & you can't download the lists by day... you have to take their whole list which spans several days.

What do you guys find as the most reliable, unfiltered, best price drop lists around today!?

Haha..... I'm guessing you all want to keep them to yourselves; that's fine. :p

IMO there is no 'best' list.
Even running the zone files yourself will get you inaccurate info as there are a lot of false positives.
The exody lists seem not to be that fresh either.
Not to mention their website design that looks so 1996ish :lol:

try premiumdrops.com, there are no raw drop lists, all are scanned for metrics, but literally all (including those with 0 metrics) are displayed. the drop lists & pendingdelete lists are pulled from snapnames+pool and joined.

drop catchers generally have the best drop lists because they get them from the participating registrars. ex: you'll get domains in those lists that were forced dropped due to TMs, etc that you would not otherwise get through processing zone files.

good luck.

The best list I found is from odditysoftware.com. Everything grouped based on dictionary, ovt, etc. Great site, highly recommended.

I also use the one provide by enom. But it is a long list to manually filter by hand.

As Luc says some dropcatchers have agreements with certain registrars, for example Snapnames gets the expiring names from Netsol which are then auctioned off. These names will not appear on Pool's lists because these are not deleted domains.

The 'tasted' domains are (most of them) deleted after a few days and do not go through the redemption cycle. Therefore they are immediately returned to the pool of available domains.
Also some domains may be deleted with immediate effect because of legal reasons or on owner request. Such drops are not predictable unlike the pending-delete domains.
