renew domain

Hi I want to renew my domain name. Could you please help. Domain name: mpminfinityjewelry.com
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Have you tried to renew it here? > Store > My Upgrades
Has the domain expired? If it has expired then you no longer own it. The registar owns iit. There is a brief grace period and after that it’s in redemption. See here > expired domain -
Your domain name is in Redemption and you will need to work with the staff to renew the domain name. There will be an additional charge that is set by the registrar and not by WordPress.COM – I think the total charge will be $ 97– if the domain name can be renewed.
@TT has flagged this for staff attention.

The domain “mpminfinityjewelry.com” expired on February 9. It is currently in “redemption” – this means that the domain is deactivated, but has not yet been fully released. During this time, you can still renew this domain, but the process is more complicated then a regular renewal.
If you want to get this domain back, you have several options:
* We can renew the domain for you, through our registrar. This costs $97, which includes $17 for the domain and an additional cost of $80 for a late renewal. We have no control over this additional cost, as it is levied on us by out domain registrar.
* Try to register the domain through a domain back-ordering service, such as Pool (Registering starts at $60 with Pool) http://pool.com/
* Wait until the domain is out of redemption and becomes available for registration again, and then register it again for the regular price of $17. This would run the risk of the domain being registered by someone else before you, or the domain not being released for registration at all. The exact redemption period and the release of the domain are at the discretion of our domain registrar and we can’t control it.
If you want to have the best chance of getting your domain back, your best bet would be the first option – we will renew your domain for you through our registrar and it will be automatically restored to your account.
If you want us to renew the domain for you, please transfer payment through PayPal.
Go to PayPal, and transfer US$97.00 to “(email visible only to moderators and staff)”.
In the comments field, please enter payment “For renewal of domain: mpminfinityjewelry.com”.
After you transfer the payment, please reply to this email and send us the transaction ID you got from PayPal. We will contact our registrar, and they will reactive your domain within a few days, if not hours.
PLEASE NOTE: Time is of the essence here. Because your domain is very close to being cancelled, it may no longer be possible to recover it. If you pay for renewal and we are unable to recover the domain, you will be fully refunded.

thank you all for your assistance. I made my payment of $97.00 through paypal to “(email visible only to moderators and staff)”, and I entered “for renewal of domain: mpminfinityjewelry.com”. I got my transaction ID, but I am not comfortable of posting those numbers here. I emailed support@wordpress.com yesterday the transaction ID, and I’m still waiting for their reply. I am hoping I can retain this domain name.

Sorry, that was an error, I meant reply to this thread with the details, not send a separate email.
I have contacted our registrar partner to request recover of the domain and I’ll let you know as soon as they reply.

http://mpminfinityjewelry.com/ has been recovered.
Please let us know if you need any further assistance!

thank you, I really appreciate your help. Now I just need to find a host for my domain name. How do I go about that? My web site is still being done, should I wait to find a host when my web site is ready to go?
-
You’re welcome!
Well, we have some hosting recommendations at http://get.wp.com/hosting/
I recommend just waiting until you’re ready. There will be some development that you’ll need to do with the domain pointed to it.

Thank you, you have been awesome. That really relieve some stress of retaining my company domain name. I will make sure that coslty mistake will not happen again. Aloha

hipagriculture, I needed to know the domain prior to you sending payment.
That domain is not in redemption and appears to be owned by someone else now.
Please let me know your receipt or transaction ID so I can refund the payment you sent.

You’ll need to contact the folks at http://hipagriculture.org/ to see if they’ll sell it back to you.

I should have it in my possession in a day or two, how can I set it up again to be my website thru word press?
