did namecheap stole my domain ?

tommy.k said:

I mean, I was searching my clever domain name yesterday on namecheap
it listed for 20$ which is fair enough

and then boom, today the domain is now taken lol
and guess who hosted it ?
namecheap-nginx

is this their common practice ? As you can see I'm a newbie in this field
any idea where to check site availability since who.is don't include price

no I'll not share the domain name
because you smartass might do the same thing lol

Very misleading thread title, been with them for a long time and never had such an issue. but my first search on GoDaddy the domain was taken but available in the marketplace -_- and on multiple occasions a normal domain shows premium price only on GoDaddy.
