But why not make it cheaper for long term customers? I have already transferred all of my domains to gandi from a registrar that took marketing to an almost psychotic extreme. I'm happy now but I pay a bit more. It would make me feel appreciated if I got a discount for longer registrations or some kind of bonus for being a loyal customer. I get jealous of the other people getting discounts!</p> http://www.gandibar.net/post/2009/10/16/Transfers-at-reduced-prices-at-Gandi#c171387 urn:md5:c10e63aa6716ba2c4fca01033a949f9c Thu, 05 Nov 2009 16:12:51 +0100 Nicolas (Gandi) <p>Brendan: it's true for companies which are doing marketing and adverts outside to attract new customers...but we are not <img src="/themes/default/smilies/smile.png" alt=":)" class="smiley" /> We work only with word of mouth. This offer is more dedicated for existing customers who still have domains elsewhere or for new customers already convinced to join us.</p> http://www.gandibar.net/post/2009/10/16/Transfers-at-reduced-prices-at-Gandi#c171386 urn:md5:67e20e4a6ec1465b0f86f32cb9a22baf Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:02:59 +0100 Brendan <p>This is a rather unfortunate trend in registrar marketing. It means the new customers get a great deal but the loyal customers pay more. I'd rather you just lower the prices for all customers. Gandi is great but these kinds of promos make me think about moving registrars every few years.</p> http://www.gandibar.net/post/2009/10/16/Transfers-at-reduced-prices-at-Gandi#c171204 urn:md5:21c2d6f45005a6e74fbe636f0d3626c4 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 22:24:39 +0200 baby <p>The minimum PayPal fee is what made me transfer 2 domains at the same time instead of one...</p> http://www.gandibar.net/post/2009/10/16/Transfers-at-reduced-prices-at-Gandi#c171200 urn:md5:959863fc8052250d9924d35f1f445e2d Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:00:00 +0200 Nicolas (Gandi) <p>baby: sorry for that but it need a start date<br /> shadi: the minimum commission fee ask by Paypal is too high for the moment to reduce the min payment level.</p> http://www.gandibar.net/post/2009/10/16/Transfers-at-reduced-prices-at-Gandi#c171199 urn:md5:fbe4cf8f508424b5a15a9bf4dc0ccaaa Sun, 18 Oct 2009 21:02:48 +0200 shadi <p>what about reducing paypal minimum payment? so i can transfer my domain.</p> http://www.gandibar.net/post/2009/10/16/Transfers-at-reduced-prices-at-Gandi#c171195 urn:md5:15e1875382f7aedce61c5a36e5800eeb Sat, 17 Oct 2009 20:14:00 +0200 baby <p>Is it fair that this offer appears exactly 2 days after I transferred my last 2 domains that were outside gandi?
