I’ve found most registrars will at least list the price after the first year. So you should be able to buy it for $0.01 with the clear knowledge of the normal yearly price to expect. I’ve used Cloudflare for registration and they’re pretty good, only issue was some TLDs that weren’t supported by them. PorkBun seems to get a good review. I personally use a local registrar who offers TLDs local to my country.
