They offered me the same thing, but I moved. I moved because if you
compare the features and all the kit and kaboodle, even at the same
price Network Solutions isn't a good deal.

If a you charge a client $150 an hour for the last six projects, and
the client finds out all of your competitors charge $30 an hour, and
he asks you about it and you say "Oh, I'll only charge you $30 from
now on", how happy do you think that customer will be with the new
price?
Do you think he wi
Well, I guess you're right with that example. That is a little more
accurate.
I guess in the legal sense, this is not evil, but from the consumer
point of view, I think it is. In your example, considering the couches
were the exact same, I would go back to the guy next door and buy his.

Wait, that example doesn't seem quite right either. Wouldn't it be more
akin to:
Guy1: How much for that couch?
Me: 30 bucks.
Guy1 goes to the garage sale next door. Sees the same couch for cheaper.
Guy1 returns.
Guy1: Same couch is 20 bucks next door. How much for your couch again?
Me: 20 buck
The company is certainly allowed to price things however they like.
But I personally refuse to give my business to a company that I have
to be worried about gouging me every chance they get (unless I have to
due to monopoly, but will switch at the very first opportunity).
There is a difference bet

Not bothered by it, just curious about it.

Ah, but see, this example is not a fair comparison. You didn't get

To go along with this, how about NetSol's policy of sending out renewal
notices that were clearly deceptive (as deemed by the courts, I believe)
two years before renewal was even necessary? Can anyone tell me that is
a honest business practice?

Then why do registrars like godaddy charge a frac

1. the govt has been doing it to my family for well over 100 years,
and im not moving from the usa.
2. i charge what i can charge, as long as i can charge it, thats
capitalism baby. i completely understand. its on me not to try to
get better pricing. there are INDUSTRIES that are based
I would be pissed off, too. It's a trust issue for me. You offer me
$35 (or whatever) per domain per year. I trust that you are giving me

Why the indignation?
As a consumer, you are trying to get as much as you can, for as little as
you can.
As the vendor, they are trying to give you as little as they can, for as
much as they can.
If you've been happily paying a company X dollars for years, can you
honestly expect them to call y
That commercial is for Vonage, I think.
"People do stupid things" - like stay at NetSol. :)
I think a lot of their issues are mor than price-related. Bad business
practices and extreme difficulty in getting domains away from them is a
good start.

I have real issues with the people that charge "X" until you find a
better price and -then- say, "oh, well we can charge you "Y" as well".
