Maybe I should set up a "dropping" forum or system, so that they are offered to members here before they go into the Nominet drop queue.

That way existing owners get a last chance of making a sale, and members get a chance to buy them at a good price without any risk.

How could we automate something so that they get grouped by drop date? I could perhaps do this as a sub-site but linked to member credentials here and only allow certain members access?

I own drops.co.uk if that helps

Isn't that really want the "bargain basement" section is for? Maybe you could set up a "due to drop" section where members can have the domain for free if they cover the transfer cost.

I own dropped.co.uk, and not doing anything with it...

I don't have a credit card on heart, so all the domains I have with them will drop

for example, Poplar is an area in London, and I think Poplar.co.uk was one of my latest to be suspended...

Well yes but I was thinking of something that automatically tracks the domains to their eventual drop date, so that people can bag a bargain the day before for example.
