I regged a couple domain names at Yahoo! in 2005 while they were offering them for $1.99 per name. Now, I have transferred all of them to DynaDot.
The problem is that: Although I have transferred them to DynaDot, Yahoo! have stored my card information and is charging $34.95 per name at their renewal. Isn’t a gigantic rip-off sucking scam? Yes!

I remember the $1 deal they offered sometime back, so I registered 3 domains for 7 years apiece (before they fixed the "first year only" bug) and immediately (as in, after the 3 day grace period expired) moved them to my proper registrar and thereby canceled any future relationship I would have with Yahoo!.

If anyone is also going to take Yahoo! up on one of their deals, I'd advise them to do the same.

Sorry you got ripped off, though, Elliot. It never feels good to get cheated.

I've always know yahoo period was kind of a ripoff. Many people think if they have a yahoo domain that they will be favored in there searches. Which doesn't happen.
