Truthfully, the only way to provide domain registration services is to charge more than we charge now with the games that these guys like to play. People like Verisign cause registration prices to go up because they cause so much extra work to be done. BUT, I still refuse to raise any prices because I sure as the hell am not going to let those idiots get what they want ;) Funny thing, Verisign is going to have to raise prices even more to try and get out of all the trouble they have caused. Truth is, they are a time bomb. Any day Verisign will be history... The bomb is ticking away....
OpenSRS resellers are proving to the world that you do not need to pay for a ICANN logo to provide awesome services and support. Keep it up OpenSRS and all resellers! -- Mike Allen, 4CheapDomains.Net [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.4CheapDomains.Net (812) 275-8425 - Office (815) 364-1278 - Fax ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Scott" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, May 18, 2002 10:43 AM Subject: Re: Prices going up?!' > Or, the subject could be "Margins going down". It now seems that the time it takes to support/educate the customer about domain names is increasing--renewal scams, Verisign's ineptitude, intentionally vague or misleading transfer away confirmations from other registrars, etc. Throw on top of that policing their WHOIS data (because they are your customer and they will expect you to look out for their interests, whether it is a valid expectation or not) and I wonder when it becomes a loss leader. Or, is it already? > > Chris > > ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- > From: "Mike Allen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: "Mike Allen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Sat, 18 May 2002 09:45:23 -0500 > > >Please see that Derek pays a per review fee and not the rest of us in a price hike for his huge list of screwed up names!!!!! > > > >No offense intended. I can see how that could be taken wrong. We just can't see paying more than $10 when we police our clients and tell them to make their who-is accurate. At that point if they do not, that is their problem as we tell them we are not responsible for the loss of their domain to in-accurate who-is info.... > > > > > >-- > >Mike Allen, 4CheapDomains.Net > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >http://www.4CheapDomains.Net > >(812) 275-8425 - Office > >(815) 364-1278 - Fax > > > > > >
