That's too bad; I'm a fan of Namecheap as well. This sounds like a breakdown in process. I hope you at least get your $31 back, even if you aren't able to buy the domain for that amount.
Pricing mistakes do happen, and Namecheap as an intermediary here (instead of being the actual seller of the domain) is in a hard place to honor that mistake.
- SoftTalker 2y agoMistakes happen, but the process is facilitated by Namecheap and it's their name on the banner. It would cost them relatively nothing to honor the $31 price and eat the loss, or at least the $3,900 price. If the domain holder is the one jerking them around they should be banned from using Namecheap to sell any other domains unless they honor their original listed price.
- DidYaWipe 2y agoNamecheap has unfortunately decided to start screwing people and relying on inertia to keep bilking them. There was a post on here last year or so about how they blamed ICANN for a fee increase, but it turned out that Namecheap was just jacking people for most of it. An alleged rep joined the thread and tried to excuse it by pointing people to an alternate "budget" service that they launched... but of course (IIRC) doesn't allow you to move your domains to directly.
- gottorf 2y agoDo you have recommendations for an alterative good budget domain registrar?
