Which services to back-order IDNs?

I know that Pool allows this, but Snapnames does not.

Any other services I can use to back-order IDNs?

Didn't know that Pool actually works for IDN, even though they are included in the drop list. I still do drops but manually. Haven't missed many and it is much cheaper. I have never paid more than $8.

Yeah actually I only missed one.
ケータイ.com keitai.com which means cell phone in Japanese.
But the same day I missed that I did pick up Anime.com in native Japanese.

If it's something expiring with over a million or so searches a month.

I probably now wouldn't take the chance losing it....

I once had a guy on trying to buy Jump.com in Japanese for $200. He was hopping mad because he had booked it at Snapnames. He was even madder when I told him I had picked it up as a manual drop. If you are going to use a drop service, be absolutely sure that they do support IDN. Of course if you come across a service that actually works, we would all be interested to know.

Gotcha... I thought I ordered a few and now I know why they never went to auction!

Does this mean it's a very hit-or-miss type affair? i.e. check everyday to see if you can register it? A PM would be much appreciated if there are any tidbits not suitable for a public forum.

Thanks
