Anyone knows about the .sg sales?

RoxyAus · 08-14-2008, 08:58 PM

I came across a few SG registrars who are promoting on low .sg pricing and even from SGNIC's website. One of the lowest i could find is offering it at only USD2.50...and more today I saw from SGNIC's website here that they are approaching their 100,000th Registration and the 100,000th Registrant will receive SGD2,000, haha, guess Christmas is here early this year.

Rules with terms and conditions here http://www.sgnic.sg/pdf/SGNIC_100K_Rules_Final.pdf

Sounds really interesting to me, I am sure alot of you are registering it quietly, hehe...

$2.50 is indeed very cheap for a country code domain name! Will consider...

Albert · 08-15-2008, 03:00 AM

I don't see the potential of .sg but i do see a few sales going for .sg if i remember correctly. Not much.
Singapore doesn't have huge population. I don't see an end user market for domain hack.

Conclusion, go with .com always.

lzy · 08-15-2008, 04:02 AM

Where are you buying your .sg for USD2.50?!

lilpooh · 08-17-2008, 11:52 PM

My current registrar webnic.cc is selling at USD2.50

wot · 08-17-2008, 11:59 PM

Singaporeans.sg was available, check out Casino related names as they are about to open a huge complex in the next year or two.

How much renew fees?
That is the important for long term.

Checked with my account manager, the renewal fees would be at normal price. $2.50 is only the reg fee for this promo month

But they will review every name you register. No instant register is available.

bds · 08-21-2008, 08:39 AM

be careful if you are buying to resell.....it takes ages to transfer a .sg domain name. I had a bad experience and since then have not bought a single .sg domain name for the sheer pain you have to go through to get the name transferred..unless they have changed the transfer process you and the buyer are in for a lot of paperwork

metronome · 08-21-2008, 09:28 AM

the renewal fee is high tho, but ya, I think it is promotion only, it will end like soon, in the end of august. need singaporean address proxy I think.

kev · 08-21-2008, 10:56 AM

if anyone could help me with an admin contact for .sg names id appreciate it

lilpooh · 08-24-2008, 08:31 PM

I did reg a few too...but was unsuccessful...show message:" registrar insufficient fund in registry account" sort of error message!!
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=503871

I called up the account manager as usual, and was told that someone reg over thousands of .sg till it burned up the registrar fund. hahaha.

But now it is ok...and I took about 10.sg
