For Sale Drop times

[peter]

OK, I always seem to get my numbers messed up, so let's take this one final time:

Exactly how many days from expire-date to the date the name drops for .com .net and .org?

Which times (of the day) do they drop?

 

[Whois-Search]

.Com and .Net Add 6 days to Last whois Update in PENDINGDELETE
- NetworkSolutions names drop at 2pm EST

.org was add 5 days and 14:30 UTC but now have to wait 30 days

All .com and .net names start dropping at 2 PM ET, not just Network Solutions names. The drops can last over an hour if many names are dropping.

By the way, if a domain is in REDEMPTIONPERIOD, assuming it doesn't get restored, add 37 days to the updated date to determine the drop date.

.org was add 5 days and 14:30 UTC but now have to wait 30 days

That only applied to some .org drops, and now that the redemption grace period has been implemented, I'm not sure what's going to happen until names start dropping again.
