The £75 includes them doing all the data capture, sending certs etc. The more you register the cheaper it gets, so they are not selling at a loss just a very small profit, and small profits on many sales = £ÃÆ ’‚£Ãà¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£.

Looking at your post 3 you would need to be registering 160 names a year
400 / (7.50-5) = 160 before break even.
Unless you are selling loads of names looks like you are still better off using a third party. |
But that's only for the first year... Spread the initial additional £300 cost out and it's not nearly as difficult to break even over a couple of years.
Budget for £200 per year for the first 3 years which will cover your initial registration of £400 and 2 years at £100... Then you could say 200 / (7.50 -5) = 80 for those three years and subsequent years at 100 / (7.50 - 5) = 40 to break even... much simpler...
