There are different levels of resellers where you can buy as low as $15/year. But you need to deposit at least $10K (If I remember it right).
Some of his .ph .com.ph are already expired and available to register. I guess he did no renew them as no money coming in.
Advertising.PH is now open for Filipino's in dot PH at iba pa.
