The .PRO Discussion

[InvisionTech]

It seems .PRO is slowly coming out of the cage with cheaper reg prices than they were a year ago and major registrars like netsol taking notice of the extension and promoting it.

Here are some that I picked up in last couple of days:

Alexandria.pro

Anchorage.pro

Arlington.pro

Belfast.pro

Birmingham.pro

Budapest.pro

Durham.pro

Fairfax.pro

Italian.pro

Lisbon.pro

Fire away with your regs after the relaunch on September 8th, 2008.

Got my first offer today for a .pro.... 4 letter video sounding domain. Offer was "$12" but will see what it gets up to.

Bitcoin should not be an issue, plenty of liquidity.

I don't use it at all.

But next day I have found that Epik escrow can accept Bitcoin...
Unfortunately, then this bidder answered me that he is not interested any more.

we had a few users add portfolios with .pro and we have since added full whois support for it since it seems to be somewhat popular with some of our members.

Now you just need to add .pro to the search list in the public domain store. =)

add a logo to the sales page place a "reasonable buy now price" and send him the link. That switch from make offer to anyone can buy usually seals the deal for me.

$2.17 Reg/Transfer at 1and1 has finished.
$15.17 as of now...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

So the lowest transfer now is ~$9 with CrazyDomains...

 

[maksimfa]

Namecheap $2.18 with tax.

 

[maksimfa]

Ah, transfer... you are probably right.
For new... $2.18 with namecheap.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

$2.06 Reg with NameCheap = $1.88 + ICANN-fee ($0.18).

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

.PRO Transfer to NameCheap is impossible at all, they still not implemented it.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I also have $10 Transfer with Epik (individual price)...
