I am a domainer (I invest in domain names as a business) or am associated with the secondary market. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Verisign is merely your manager of the .COM Registry - it has no business dictating the price. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. I totally oppose to the raising of .com prices. It makes absolutely no sense. If anything, technology costs are decreasing. Thank you and Regards Sandeep Goyal
