How the Germany storefronts were read

Eight German retail brands from DENIC's member list plus the two tracked registrars with a German storefront were opened in a real browser on 2026-09-28. Checkdomain and INWX returned 404 on the page tried, Key-Systems 403, and Host Europe printed no price; Gandi's German address redirects to its English storefront. On 2026-10-20/21 the 3 storefronts that could not be read were opened again in a browser that waits longer for pages built by script, reads framed pages and follows a redirect from plain http to https: 2 were read this time, 1 still could not be, and none of those read prints a comparable .de price. On 2026-10-08, 34 storefronts were read by hand from their own .de pricing pages: 1 already listed here now carry a comparable .de price, and 33 were opened for the first time, 14 of them with a comparable price. On 2026-10-26, 30 storefronts were read by hand, looking for a page that states the tax treatment of its .de price: 30 were added and 0 re-read, and the number with a comparable .de price went from 17 to 23.
