To be honest, those two words don't go together for anything in life.

Expect to pay more for service anywhere.

very well said.
Any price below $6 is fishy - if you find sites offering that, read the fine print carefully.
I will choose one of the ~$7 registrars that are here to stay.(eNom, godaddy)

eNom is my preferred registrar. DCG's statement is very true.

Anything under $6.25 including ICANN fees for .com means they're losing money...unless there's another purchase requirement. They're banking on you buying something else (or requiring it).

I was going to say the same thing as DCG but oh well. He said first. Let me rephrase it then :) You get what you pay for!

I won't say it's fishy, as it could be a loss leader or something. I have registered A LOT for $5 each at EV1Servers.net (then a Tucows/OpenSRS reseller) when they first launched their domain registration service.

By the way, DNForum does have its own ICANN-accredited registrar: click on "Services" (just next to "User CP"), and scroll down to "Domain Registration". Or you can go directly to DreamRegistrar.com. :)

GoDaddy is very good in my opinion. Up until recently you could get for $4.19, now the lowest price is $6.19.

Don't they make it hard to push domains to another account?

The names are below cost because they hope you'll buy other services like webhosting.
