Cheap Australian domain names from e-CBD

Question: Why are you so cheap, why do you sell .com.au for less than $75 and .com for less than $18 when everyone else is charging heaps more?

e-CBD began registering .com, .net .org and other international domain names in 1999, but up until 2002 registration of .com.au and other Australian domain names was handled solely by a company called Melbourne IT (www.melbourneit.com.au). Melbourne IT had a monopoly in the industry for many years, but in 2002 regulations changed and other approved competitors were allowed to enter the market — and as your high school economics teacher would have told you, more competition = cheaper price, and that's why we-re so cheap.

Question: My high school economics teacher also told me you get what you pay for, if you're so cheap, does that mean you're a bit, you know, dodgy?

e-CBD buys it's domains at a wholesale rate from Planet Domain (www.planetdomain.com.au) — a subsidiary of iPRIMUS who happen to be one of the world's largest telecommunications companies. We put a tiny markup on their price (a smaller markup than their website does) to cover costs and pass the savings on to you. When you buy an Australian domain name from e-CBD you can be safe in the knowledge that your purchase will be handled and supported by Planet Domain and iPRIMUS.
