Scenario:
"
A Registrar is in the business of selling domain names.

U want to resell? Cool. I'll give you a discount. You're now my reseller,
and you get stuff cheaper.
"

Sounds like traditional business to me, if I were focused on selling domain
names, its the model I would adopt.

I sure as heck would not market to my resellers clients, but I can still
compete in the same space for mine.

To my knowledge, Enetica have *not* approached our clients directly.  Other
registrars *have* approached our clients.   We have always found Enetica
great to deal with.  What concerns me is that Enetica (and others) think it
ok to compete with their channel -  and target the same registrant client
who was introduced to them by the reseller.   that is a business practice
that is *not*  ok.
