For approximately a year Name.com has been leading the industry with a $5.99 .com price.
Due to cost increases in the last year and coming up we’ve decided to raise our .com price to $7.99.
For a limited time you’ll still be able to take advantage of $5.99 pricing for new .com registrations by using the promo code XUP599 (Name.com coupon for you) when you checkout. This is currently only good for one year registrations.

Name.com will continue to offer the best value in domain name registrations, with free whois and bundled Gmail for your domains. Look for additional products and services throughout the coming year.

Update: now, the price of domains are going up, if you want get a .com domain, you should pay for 7.49$ with coupon, more details
