On July 1, 2010, VeriSign®, the registry for .COM and .NET, will increase
prices affecting the whole domain name industry.
Renew and transfer your domains before
the 1st of July.
After or just before such a date, general price
increases for the whole domain name industry and they will adjust their prices as well.
I think the price is still good nowadays. It competes with godaddy. Too bad for its design!
