Catching a domain that expires at Moniker

The domain will first be put up for auction at SnapNames (Both Moniker and SnapNames are part of the same company: Oversees). Moniker's grace period lasts about 34-35 days before the domain becomes available at SnapNames. Then if no one bids, it goes into a 30-day Redemption Period and 5-day Pending Delete. This is for .com's and .net's. Different domain extensions and registries may use different deletion schedules.
