Mike here using old openid account, as I'm replying too fast.
The CA handles the verification, hence the difference in price. Symantec/Verisign is the most expensive, Digicert is in the middle, Comodo and the Symantec budget brands are the cheapest.
As mentioned elsewhere, I do have code written against the Comodo API, and it would be a lot more profitable to use them. However I (and the tech companies I'm targeting, eg, Stripe, GitHub) use Digicert certs, mainly for reasons of verification speed but also business practice compared to competitors, eg, Comodo: https://blog.hboeck.de/archives/866-PrivDog-wants-to-protect-your-privacy-by-sending-data-home-in-clear-text.html https://blog.hboeck.de/archives/866-PrivDog-wants-to-protect...
