Ouch

April 19th, 2006

I just paid £30 to renew a .com domain for one year. Thats €43.26 - about eight times what I usually pay with eNom. Had to renew it before they would transfer the ownership because it was already expired. And I thought it was funny when I was quoted $10 per user per month for standard pop3 email accounts. I thought these kind of prices went out in 2001.
