Not having to do that is easily worth $143.01.&lt;p&gt;I agree that the domain system is horribly broken, but these guys are closer to a solution than to a problem.</text><parent_chain><item><author>wildmXranat</author><text>No! A $7.99 domain name and what looks like to me a $99 logo thrown is not a steal or a good deal. Let me come at this way: Can I get the domain off of you for %80 off the $250 price ?

Care and consideration has been exercised in the branding of these names, from colors to typography.  If the &quot;raw materials&quot; are indeed $99 + $7.99, then $250 is a good deal for what amounts to 1.5-2 hours of skilled work to create this finished product.</text><parent_chain><item><author>wildmXranat</author><text>No!
