How do I buy an expired domain?

Hi guys,

I discovered a domain I am interested in buying. According to WHOIS it expired on 16th March 2012, and its status is REDEMPTION PERIOD.

When I search for it it comes up as 'Already taken', and it is not listed on the auction.

So where is it? And can I buy it?

Any help welcome from warriors a bit more savvy than myself.

    hi wilson,, There are three methods to successfully capture an expired domain name:
    1. Automated Registration Software Backorder
    2. Pre-Release Backorder
    3. Manual Registration
    Each one of the has different process
    but don't worry, i don't want to explain it in here, its too long

    You can either backorder it with big players like SnapNames or NameJet, or wait
    (and risk) for it to be available 35-36 days from the domain's last updated date.
    Redemption period is 30 days, followed by pending delete for 5, then avail on its
    "6th" day.
