    i have heard yahoo offers $2 per registration and i have been looking for more informations but couldnt find any! so i want to ask you guys....

    1. $2 for .coms? how much for .info? are there any hidden fees? how much for renewals and transfers?
    2. any bad experiences with it?
    3. i would like to buy around 15 domains and then im looking forward to sell them on sedo. dont have any plan to host site with them. do you think i should go with yahoo?

    4. i have a unverified paypal...is it okay with yahoo?

    I will avoid to buy domain name from yahoo as I am sure there are hidden fees on that price or something attached with it that is going to cost you sooner or later.

    If the transfer was easy you could choose them but I guess it is not , I have heard a lot of complaints about them.Domains are investment we give our time on them so it is better to be on the safe side.

    I would never, ever, buy a domain from Yahoo. You'll have problems later on when you want to transfer out, plus renewals are expensive
