yahoo 2.99 domains - question - GoFuckYourself.com

lchaim · 10-19-2005, 06:28 PM

Is this only good if you HOST with them or is that for any normal domain purchase?

thanks

i picked one up yesterday and i think there was small print about only one domain being allowed unless you buy hosting and offer only good till 31st, but I didn't read to closely.

i bought a $2.99 domain & they charged my credit car $4.99

I just went to check, and my charge hasn't appeared yet but this charge from yesterday was neat - never been billed in Rubles before:

Oct. 18, 2005 WWW.ALLOFMP3.COM MOSCOW $285.86 RUB @ 0.042398

Ok, thought it sounded fishy, so I'll keep going with my trusty enom account.

Not fishy at all. I picked up 6 at $2.99 a piece.

its not hearsay , i bought some domains when they first had this deal months ago and they didnt have domain locking , see my post under lensman's thread ( same topic )

They do now and thats great but the service still sucks

I bought about 10 domains at 2.99 within 2 days, no trouble at all even though I did notice in the fine print it said only 1 domain per account.

pawsregd · 10-19-2005, 08:17 PM

I bought 4 the last time they had the deal. All were cancelled and refunded within a week. I tried contacting them but they just don't answer.

mixed emotions over this whole oreal it seems

chodadog · 10-19-2005, 08:54 PM

Probably best to wait a few months to see how it pans out for others. You really don't want domains getting tied up at a place if there's going to be a whole bunch of trouble. But once they get their act together, $2.99 per domain would be awesome.

Royce · 10-19-2005, 10:26 PM

ok
The system was a shit
They only have US States to choose on profile
Usually you have to log 4,5 times consecutive
And the dns system was another shit

But

2,99 $ per domain, was great
