Dear
Oliver,
thanks
for pointing this out. The debate has been going on in ICANN community for quite a while already on whether ICANN should regulate prices or introduce some kind of pricing controls. Pricing appears to also have a consequence on domain misuse as it has been
noticed that domain names sold at very low prices are being used as throwaway domains for spam etc. The discussion is ongoing with no consensus on what to do, as some oppose any kind of pricing regulation in what is an open market, whilst others are asking
that ICANN establish rules for TLD pricing increases. The fact that some domains are sold as premium domains for several thousand $ whilst others are sold at $1, makes this difficult. Plus the essential question remains: is it in ICANN's mandate to control
domain name pricing?
Kindest
regards,
Olivier
