In the UAE, you can register your domain name through either of the two telecom operators, Etisalat and du, which handle the registration through the UAEnic (United Arab Emirates Network Information Center) and are accredited registrars for both .ae and .abudhabi.
You can also register for other top-level domains such as those ending with .com and .net through privately owned registrar companies which are accredited by the UAE’s Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA).
Multiple factors influence domain pricing. When you buy a domain name, the seller, usually a web hosting company, is known as the registrar. The registrar gets your domain name from the main registry (in the UAE, it’s the TRA).
... A huge after-market exists for good names and so called “domainers” also invest in domain names to sell them for a profit at a later date.
