How to get an expiring domain?

[Johny]

So, one of my friends told me he got a domain after 1 hours after it expired.
But others say..after the domain expires..it takes about 15 days until you can get it ..
Does anyone know how it realy is?
If a domain expires today..how canone find out the hour when he can buy it ?
Thank you in adance for answearing !

Hmm I don't really know, unless it was directly available after it expired then he would be able to get it, otherwise I don't know.

This guide will help:
Guide to Expired Domain Names

It will allow you to understand the domain name expiry and deletion cycle better, and also teach you how to 'grab' domains as soon as they get into expiry.
