The other "gotcha" with Afternic/GoDaddy is that if you BUY a premium domain through them, you will be charged HST if you provide a Canadian address to them when setting up your account.
In other words, the $5,000 premium domain you could buy on Sedo will cost you $5,650 if you buy it via GoDaddy/TDNAM (if you are buying from Ontario, or example, where HST is 13%).

I'm actually OK with that, I have to charge GST/HST too. And while this might negatively affect hobbyists, any real business is going to be GST registered and they'll get all the GST they've paid returned as an ITC.
