I'd heard great things about Gandi from colleagues, and used them for years, but at USD$16.59 per year per .com domain they're relatively expensive for larger numbers of domains. Namecheap has been my go-to more recently, and I haven't had any issues with them.

I actually find the prices somewhat reassuring. They're not trying to make their margins through dark patterns and upsells, they just ask for it up front.

I can see how it'd start adding up with too many domains, but at my level the trust is more comfortable.

True. Prices are higher than of competitors. In my case, since I don't have many domains, paying between $10 and $20 per domain per year doesn't make much of a difference.
