Anyone had an email from Asian Registry?

I just got an offer of a name (.asia version of a name I had registered until last year) for the cheap sum of $299 registration and $45 per year, given that I have a Directi reseller and can see the price I could register it for, some people are seriously taking the p*ss.

One registrar to avoid

$299? That's mental!

Is it the case that they've already registered a bunch of domains and are trying to offload them ?

That's even crazier than I thought! I can't remember how much we charge offhand, but I know it's a lot less than that!

Think this domain name extension is popular only in Asian area.

I do not think this extension is popular at all. However it is possible to get .asia from EuroDNS.com for only 18 euros.
