Namecheap is $7.99, with the coupon code "Yaffaspecial", and free whois privacy. I have 30 domains with them.

Domainsite is cheaper $6.99, but too bad no whois privacy, i registered once with them and they are fine too. The cheapest I find with 'no catch at all'.

Netkl's domain only RM33/yr.. I think Malaysian companies all offer around RM35/yr.. But I saw some with RM50/yr (forgot what company liao).

Anyone tried yahoo domains? I saw their ad, first year cost only $1.99 @.@
it's dirt cheap man!

dotster.com offering 1USD one domain per account. I've been buying with them, so far is OK but the load of cp is bit slow. They dont offer free-whois service like others.

BTW, you can onlky use one time the coupons even you register a new account but you may skip it by using a new credit card.

for 1usd domain for 1st year and after that 14.99usd or transfer it to another registrar.

Domainsarefree.com is a scam I think so, coz when tried to pay with my cc, the last year is '10 not like others, so I cant paid coz my cc valid until '11

once i tried to goto yahoo's small business site directly i get the normal price display but whenever i click through the link in their promotion email, it's the less than 2 dollars price. i think even if you can't transfer after the first year (i didn't see anything like that in their terms and conditions though), the total for two years is still cheaper than most registrars.

currently i have all except one of my domain names registered at dynadot, 7.99 for domain name, and $2.00 for privacy protection, please note that their privacy protection only hides your contact info, it doesn't hide your name.

Any email that send to the encrypted email address of your private WHOIS, will be redirected to your personal email address

The settings can be shown in your namecheap control panel (assumming you purchased your domain name from namecheap).

Furthermore, if you are selling your domain names, you can easily put your domain names for sale in namecheap's marketplace with a few clicks.

Our core business is web hosting, not domain registration. We do not have the intension to compete with other domain registrars who basically selling domain name below their cost.

This applies for both .com and .com.my domain you registered with Exabytes.

The only reason why domain registration service provider can offer you such a dirt cheap domain registration fee is, they will convince you to sign up with their other hosting or add on services which from there they will be able to cover the domain registration cost which they need to "subsidies" by offering $2-$3 registration.

Also, by selling domain at $2-$3, they don't have to do any other commercial advertising, the word will spread on its own, in another word, they use their advertising and marketing budget to subsidies the domain registration fees.

Oooops... I have revealed too many business secrets.

It doesnt make sense here. What's the different between other company? Mostly what I've seen and experience for local hosting package is, eventhough you are signing up for a hosting package with them or not, the domain price for a year still a fixed price. All of you guys use resseler registrar right? eg enom.com etc... Care to explain?
