RE: [cobalt-users] Companies accredited as registrars by ICANN

["Raq Directory" <info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi

yeah its right about the ownership thing and I've noticed some who charge 15
to 20 dollars to transfer etc - suppose don't be fooled by initial low
prices and I think jokers terms are in german - not a language I'm too
familiar with... we use opensrs and if your a tucows affiliate it's $8 no
strings....

Whit

If I'm not mistaken there are a couple of 'catches' with both 123domains AND
joker.com.

Like you don't actually own the domain, just lease it.

Control is a way bigger deal then price when it comes to domain names.
