Does this handling fee sound reasonable to you? Can someone recommend a better place to register my doman name?

Check or money order

1) Print and fill out GKG's Off-Line Registration Form.

2) Send a check or money order in the amount shown on the form (domain
charges plus a $15 handling) payable to GKG.NET, INC. with the Off-Line
Registration Form to:

GKG
C/o Domain Registration Service
2700 Earl Rudder Frwy. S.
Suite 1300
College Station, TX 77845

Not at all. There is no valid reason you should pay a handling fee for domain registration. It's even higher that the registration fee itself. You could register your own domain name through any number of registrars. One that accepts money orders and checks is 000domains.com, and charges $13.50 per domain name.

I thought so. Thanks.

stargateinc.com also accepts checks. $10.00 per domain.:) $8.00 for more than two.
