Well George ya should never listened to that shiela from Enterica who pesters the life 
outta me every 13 and a half days.

We had two "gold" domains to register on behalf of a client and did them trhu 
INWW/MIT at their premium price and got one out of two. Ain't bad. 

We had 5 domains to register on behalf of clients who were interested but didn't /want 
to spend $500 and did them thru TPP who assured us that their systems could cope 
with that kind of volume (provided we did a little bit of work at our end other than just fill 
out an online form) and got 4 which is very good.

We tried out Enterica on some 3 domains for clients who were vaguely interested and 
got none.

And as an aside I was looking though the list of still availables (thanks Josh) and 
noticed that one name which would suit a well known retailer had not gone off. I rang 
'em in the hope of cadging the biz and was told "Oh that's all right we gave our 
computer man $700 to secure that." (As at the time of writing it is still available.) So did 
some peeps tell their clients "that'll be $500 plus fees for the premium service  thanks" 
and then sweat on it not going off and pocketing the difference?



Kind regards
