Having just jumped from Google to Nameheap this is more than mildly frustrating.

edit: apparently this is the result of Verisign putting up their wholesale prices

    Is that even possible now? When I attempted buying a domain for 10 years, it showed me the numbers as if I had renewed the domain 9 times instead of 10 times the purchasing price.

      Yeah, depends. Sometimes they’ll run a deal to multi-year registration as like a bill discount. Seems more rare these days. I look up a good renewal rate on www.tld-list.com and then have to actually go to the registrar and make up a fictional name and then see if it even allows registration for more than a year and what the cost is for 10 years.
