       @ocean@raru.re As a general rule, registrars who's main businesses is domains are a bad choice, especially the ones that do promotions like ".com for 1$". They are resellers, and must pay nearly the whole 10$/year to the registry (a different company), leading to very small margins. Any extra money to run ads or promotions must come from either: 1. charging you extra money 2. ... or screwing customers.If you see an ad for your registrar, find another one ASAP. Even if you don't get screwed, it's just a bad deal: I pay $10.50 for a .com domain (just pennies over registry cost), but godaddy will happy charge you $23. The similarly shitty namecheap charges $15.
