First off, I like Crissic just fine-- their prices are very reasonable and aside from some minor downtime earlier this month things have been smooth sailing for me. Not to mention $20/year for a reseller account works out to less than $2 per month and even if they do turn out to be a scam 6 months later, you're really only losing out on a month's worth of the money you're currently paying, which according to you is over $10/month anyway.
Moving on, how much are you currently earning from your clients? You're going to be hard pressed to find anyone willing to offer you a reseller account at $1/month. And I really have to ask... are you sure you've looked at the offers at WHT? I checked them out just now and already I see numerous offers for reseller plans that are less than $10/month.
This one is $1.99/month for life:

^ All that came from the very first page of their Reseller Hosting subforum, by the way. How on earth did you spend hours and hours of searching and not manage to find any of these yourself?
