Just want to let everyone know that NameCheap will be raising their prices.
The below statement was sent by namecheap:

Namecheap.com
Notification of Slight Price Increase to Our Current Rates
-------------------------------------------------
Dear Zach,
In April 2007, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)
approved certain domain registries to increase their prices. Domain registries
are the private companies which manage the registration, technical operations,
and control the allocation policies of the TLD's for which they are
responsible.
Domain registries VeriSign(.com, .net tld's), Afilias(.info tld),
Neulevel (.biz tld)and Public Interest Registry(.org tld)applied for and
received price increases and have announced they will be raising their
wholesale prices to all registrars including us.
In light of that decision, NameCheap.com will be adjusting its pricing on
Sunday, October 14, 2007 as follows:
.com domain renewals, transfers and new registrations: Old pricing $8.88, new pricing $9.29 per year
.net domain renewals, transfers and new registrations: Old pricing $8.88, new pricing $9.29 per year
.org domain renewals, transfers and new registrations: Old pricing $8.88, new pricing $9.29 per year
.info domain renewals, transfers and new registrations: Old pricing $8.88, new pricing $9.29 per year
.biz domain renewals, transfers and new registrations: Old pricing $8.88, new pricing $9.29 per year
Historically, NameCheap.com has always been averse to adjusting its prices.
As these cost increases are being dictated and charged to us by the registries,
we are obligated to comply.
Please rest assured that NameCheap.com will continue to strive to offer the most
responsive level of customer service 24x7, and maintain the high level of
services which has earned us your business.
On behalf of everyone at NameCheap.com, please accept our sincere thanks and
appreciation for the opportunity to continue to serve you as a valued
NameCheap.com client.
Kindest Regards,
NameCheap.com Management and Support Staff
