I posted this on the reddit too:
I tried to buy a domain with gandi. I left it in my cart for a day and then the price went up $20 dollars. I loaded up the Tor Browser, searched the same domain name and it was back at the normal price. It would stay that way even when i looked up new .scot domains. Proof: https://i.imgur.com/7kMutbB.png https://i.imgur.com/7kMutbB.png . The "no bullshit" moto just sounds like Googles "don't be evil" moto, bullshit designed to fool geeks into thinking they're honest people. Does there even exist a site to buy domains that doesn't do this bullshit?
- behringer 8y agoThe current price on .scot domains is $49. Perhaps you're seeing a difference due to exchange rate? This is the first and only report I've ever heard of Gandi even remotely doing something like this. Unlike Google, Gandi actually does live up to its motto. And like Google, if they ever fail I'm ready to jump ship. On what date was this picture taken? [Edit] I just checked the exchange rate on google and 49usd is 67aud. Looks like it was just an exchange rate mixup on your part.
- brendyn 8y agoI think you are right, which makes me feel quite stupid. I think what tricked me is that I must have logged in to gandi at some point and then come back to look at my cart I'd made while logged off and it switched to AUD, which also uses $, so I thought it had changed without me doing anything.
