Just to stir the pot ...

Really $500 isn't anywhere near the biggest markup this year, probably 
doesnt even rate

Does anyone know the top amount paid for a 2 letter domain in the recent 
release?

I just got a letter from AUDA saying that $225 is signicantly more than is 
charged by au accredited registrars, which isnt true when you think about 
it, is it?

Cheers Tony
