I recently wanted to find out what GoDaddy charges for a .cc registration, so I hit a bunch of random keys, put ".cc" on the end, and had it checked for availability. Didn't put it in my cart.

Today, I got a wonderful email from them, titled:

FDAFDAFDJKLFJDKL.CC MAY still be available

I love the "MAY" part. Gee, maybe I should grab this domain before someone else does!

Godaddy has it's own entertaining value I must say. I was not so amused though when I used their super $1.5 .com code to buy a domain just to get a bonus site developing kit (or what) which is set to auto renewal of course. So good luck finding the cancellation button, or get ready to be billed the next month. :)

Yeah, I've been through that twice now, and it's a pain. But I must say that the GoDaddy phone reps have been quite willing to cancel any auto-renewing website deals & refund the money I was automatically charged for renewing them.
