Question about : .TM (Turkmenistan DN's) Registrars and prices...

[Kamikaze]

I've noticed a "10 Years minimum registration" for those ccTLD's.
My question is for it's pricing...
I've found 2 mainly "low" prices on 2 registrars :
One is for 1500EUR and the second is for 1750EUR...
Is there something lower ?!?!
All the available verified registrars can be found here :

Thanks !

Nope, afaik. But why you dont want to register right at nic.tm? It is only 1000 USD (non EU residents) or 1175 USD for EU residents. For 10 years, of course.

One plus - .TM is IDN empowered because Russian is important language there.

wasistdas,
do you think it worth it ?!
I mean paying 1000$ for ONE dot .TM domain name ?!
I've found a very known name available, and with the dot ".TM" it's as "TradeMark" :hehe:
the word is available in dot .am and more several dot's, but dot .TM is better for this kind IMHO (again... as "trade-mark")
I'm talking all over on "trade mark", so I might mention it's a very known name...

Hm, I don't have $150 for an eNom .tm registration, so somebody else can have Legality.tm.

Well, it is up to you. .TM is not very marketed yet. The extension looks great and I personally think that TradeMark.TM is worth to register for 1000. Yes, it is painful to pay the ammount. And I dont know is it easy transferable. But the name itself is great.

I agree, great domain extension... I am thinking seriously about picking one up, the 10 year required registration is a bit strange though and expensive.

.TM sounds good but I am afraid they are being too greedy.
With 1000 euros I can file a fully-fledged, enforceable, EU-wide TM and purchase a .com name with the spare cash :hehe:
So I don't think I will be registering .tm names.

 

[wasistdas]

1000 USD not Euro. A little 20% difference . And it is possible, I think to make a trick - register with nic.tm as registrar and get 20% off their retail price. BTW, I have a list of VERY good names for .TM. Pitty it is so expensive though

Other than .TV, which is proving to be a success, I would be very, very selective about registering any exotic cctlds using initials that were posing to mean something else, unless the domain was intended for development and if it was a "must have" keyword and all other exts were unavail. .ws, which has had exposure in the marketplace the longest, has remained at a plateau in the resellers market, priced in the low/mid-$xx range for the top shelf keywords.

Names that I have regged in this genre, were chosen for their novelty value, (Trojans_SC, for example), and along w/ top keywords, are the one's that seem go first. In the case of .TM, domains like Law.TM, Lawyer.TM, Attorney.TM, Esquire.TM, LawFirm.TM, Applications.TM, DIY.TM, Product.TM, Directory.TM, Class.TM, Search.TM, etc. would probably be worth regging, if avail.

 

[wasistdas]

I agree. But also some words of premium business class, like case.tm, first.tm, available.tm, register.tm
