  Hi there,

  That domain name expired on 21-SEP-2011. Unfortunately your domain is in redemption as you didn’t renew it in time. You have three options for recovering an expired domain:

  1) Pay WordPress.com $97.00 to reactive the domain. This includes an annual subscription to the WordPress.com domain mapping and registration upgrades. We have no control over the additional cost as it is levied on us by our domain registrar.

  2) Go to http://pool.com/ register there and place the domain on backorder. As soon as the name becomes available Pool will try to get it for you. The domain would cost a minimum of $60 from there.

  3) Another alternative is to just wait, hope no one else buys it and get it again for $17.00.

  If you want to be as sure as possible of getting your domain back, you must use the first option. Please login to http://paypal.com/ and pay (email visible only to moderators and staff) US$97.00, and mark the payment “For renewal of domain: gracecreed.net” and reply to this email. We will contact our domain registrar who will reactive your domain if it is possible within a few days, if not hours.

  PLEASE NOTE: Time is of the essence here. Because your domain is very close to being processed out of the system, it may no longer be possible to recover it. If you chose option #1 and we are unable to recover, you will be fully refunded.
