Why can't I register a domain name that a registrar owns?
- by barfoon
Hey everyone,
I am interested in purchasing a .ca domain name. It was taken, and when I did a WHOIS it showed me that GoDaddy (a registrar) has control of it, however when I go to GoDaddy to purchase it, I have no such option.
I have always wondered - why do registrars do this? I've come across this situation before with other domains as well.
Is there any way to actually purchase a domain like this for yourself?
If anyone can shed some light on this issue, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Cheers,
