Dropping Domain

    I was wondering if any of you know of a great registrar that allows you to drop domains without charge? I know Dynadot used to be a great one but now they changed their policy.

    Yeah, I was talking about domain tasting. My head must have been thinking about all the good domains that may be dropping today lol. =P

    Kleszcz, do you know how much the deletion fee is? I know Dynadot is charging an insane amount which doesn't even make it worth it anymore.

    Also, which API's are any good? I googled it and a bunch of suggestions came up.

    no site allow that dude, as ICANN change his policy, now you will have to pay $2 for dropping your domain within 48 hours grace period.

    It is good if it is still $2. Coz, registrars gets charged for the full domain cost by the registries if the number of dropped domains reaches to 50 or 10% of total net registration whichever is lower.

    So I don't see a registrar would be allowing now to drop the domain.

    Correct me if I am wrong.
