I have always thought $250 (or $500, in your case probably) was way too little. Get full access for the price of 25 domains?? Doing a test any child could do? IMO that (could) bring many incompetent people to become resellers... whose only "marketing strategy" would be lowering prices... and being incompetent providing service that registrators find unprofessional, which could make other OpenSRS resellers look bad. I would say $1000 for registering your own domains - and $2000 for becoming a resellers, with a _hard_ test included. Just my 2 (euro)cents. - Cs.
