discuss GoDaddy is raising prices for certain countries

[Jacks86]

Just did a search on 4L.org and I see a handful still available. Was going to buy them, but now prices have gone up 50% for .com, .net and .org which is ridiculous. However, .INFO is still the same price as it was last year, $3.99CDN. So that tells me they are choosing which domains and which not to raise. If that's not a piss off, I don't what is.

Just spoke with GoDaddy, it's Verisign that jacked up the price on all .org's! bunch of jerks!

Hello!

According to DomComp.com 1&1 allows you to register .org for $2,99.

Best regards!

Really? wow GD is a ripoff! Time to switch registars.

Hello!

I've never used 1&1, so I'm not endorsing it.
But it's a good idea to look into other registrars offers.

Best regards.

.org is not managed by Verisign.

Verisign manages .com and .net and they are increasing .net by $1 starting Feb 2016.

Soe expect .net ratios to .com to get even lower.

Weird, that's what billing in GoDaddy told me. Either way, losing faith in that company.

Are you member of the club there? I have 3000 names with them, so it was no brainer for me to pay around $100-120 a year for reduced prices with them...

 

[Jacks86]

Yup, I got discount domain club and that's all they would give me for a deal.

You can use "cjcrmnorg" coupon for org - it was $5 last time I checked

AVOID crooks at 1&1 !

Isn't end user pricing affected by the VAT rate applicable to your country ?
