PR6 Domain , Should I buy it?

I thought domain age doesn't stay if it is rebought and re-registered? Am I wrong?

@ Royalslim There are phase before domain get deleted.. If you buy deleted one, yes domain age will not stay.... If you buy in period where it is yet to be deleted or renewed by the registrar on their own... domain age will still b there...

An overview on the phases..

Expiration. If you registered the domain name xyzXXXXX.com on January 1, 2009 and only chose to register it for one year, it will expire on January 2, 2010.

Grace period. You may still reclaim your domain name up to 40 days after expiration. You can renew your name at regular prices, but web users will not be able to see your website.

Redemption period. After the grace period, you have up to 30 days to contact the registrar and retrieve your domain name. The registrar will charge a fee in addition to the registration renewal costs.

Pending delete. During the five day pending delete phase after the end of the redemption period, the domain name is locked and cannot be registered or renewed.

Deleting/Dropping. After the five day deletion process, the domain name becomes available to individuals or companies whose business is to "catch" the dropping names for their customers.

There are 1000's of such domains available with registar.com wherein you will get the age alongwith domains...
