Hey guys, I feel like I was scammed by websitespot.com and was wondering if anyone else has fallen victim by them. When I signed up for this domain name reseller, they promised a low $6.95/yr plus ICANN fees. No problem, great deal from what I've seen, with decent support. Well, look at my first payment.

ORDER TOTAL: $7.17

QTY ITEM PRICE
--------------------------------------------------------------
1 .COM Domain Name Registration - 1 Year $7.17
*removed*.COM
--------------------------------------------------------------
Subtotal: $7.17
Shipping & Handling: $0.00
Tax: $0.00
Total: $7.17

No Problem, I like it. Now, here's what I paid on renewal, take a look at the difference in total!!! The next one, I only have proof via my PayPal payment to them

Payment DetailsTransaction ID: *removed*
Item Price: $10.19 USD
Total: $10.19 USD

Are they legally allowed to do this? I think my agreement allowed up to $500, which is ridiculous. Is there anything I can do to get them back for this, or should I just report to PayPal? There was no fine print I remember saying that I would ever be charged extra my second time paying!!

Basically, would you consider this a scam, and what should I do? Thanks.
