With WLS, it will cost $70.00 to get a dropping domain name.
Without WLS, it will cost roughly $9.00 - $35.00 to get the same dropping domain name.
No propaganda, just facts!
Granted, going after "high profile" domain names can be more expensive but the average Joe domain buyer with a little bit of diligence can buy a decent dropping name at the going competitive price.
WLS will soon make ANY worthwhile domain available for no less than $70.00

Fine. Has the registrar community provided data to support this? What is exactly the average cost of registering a deleted domain name today? I have not seen this calculation. And please be sure to include all those "consumers" that have purchased multiple services for the same domain to increase their "odds" - including those that still did not get the registration. How much does it cost to join one of those closed lists? Is this factored into your $9 to $35 range? Please provide us with the "average cost" calculation under the status quo and supporting data that supports this calculation. To me, it's a first step towards some credibility. How about if we stay away from the subjective "high profile" class since this varies from person to person and just go with the real numbers. Surely there must be enough history now to do this. Where is this as part of this whole debate?
