Hi,

I got an email today from OpenSRS that they are lowering prices as follows:


.com: $6.00
.net: $4.25
.org: $6.00
.info: $5.75
.biz: $5.30

For each domain, the ICANN Fee is $0.20 and the Tucows Management Fee is $3.00.


Is the $3.00 fee added to $6.00 and $.20 to arrive at $9.20 or am I reading this wrong?

Tucows always manage 9.75 prices, as far i remember. That sound a marketing move, similar to the godaddy charging you for parking with them

why would you want to pay $9.20, when you can get a free enom reseller account at $8.95 or less..

Hi,
Still i think the prices of Enom are too high for resellers when you can get it around $6.75 approx

They are actually getting ready for the REGISTRY level price increases in October. The best thing I like though is that now .NET is costing less and rightly so.

EDIT: I too am using Tucows/OpenSRS because it gives me the peace of mind, knowing that my domains will be safe there. I have my reseller account at eNom as well, but just don't get that sense of security.

$8.95 is only one of the pricing levels at eNom. Other resellers get much lower pricing.

I know Direct I and Qualispace.com has very reasonable rates for domain, Qualispace is providing @ $6.75 at the prepayment of $50 and currently direct have fabulous offer for reseller.
