I see this very frequently:
Domainers who register a .info domain name when the .net, .org, and sometimes even .com extensions of the name are available. I'm suprised they even ask for an appraisal, since it obviously isn't worth more than $8, since .com, .net, .org is more universally known, and available. If anyone is interested in the name, they can just go and register one of the "better" extensions. This is probably the case because .info registrations cost fairly cheap. They need to figure out that won't be able to sell the domain for "big bucks," and probably even registration fee. If they want to make money with domains, they're going to need to take a chance, and spend a few dollars more (which isn't very much anyways.) IMO, registering a domain when the "better" extensions are available is POINTLESS and a waste of money.
Just my opinion...
