Every proxy provider page, ours included, is built from advertised prices and claimed pool sizes. Those two materials cannot tell you what you actually need to know, so this page spends most of its length on what they leave out.
What we know about Proxy Buy, and what we do not
Proxy Buy trades at proxy-buy.com. They compete with us as a proxy provider.
There is no price in this comparison because we do not have one we can date and attribute. What follows instead is the set of questions that decide the cost once you do read their page.
The four figures worth copying down are the rate without a commitment, the smallest purchase allowed, what happens to unspent balance, and whether a failed request still costs money.
Proxy Buy in its own words
The title tag on 9 September 2026 was "Сайт временно отключен".
What else that page states, without interpretation:
We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.
Every line above is a quotation from their marketing rather than a measurement by us. It is included because it is checkable, not because it is evidence of performance.
How far back the record goes
The domain was registered on 7 January 2024, through Registrar of Domain Names REG.RU LLC, which makes it about 2 years old. Checked against the registry on 9 September 2026. The registration currently runs to 7 January 2027.
None of it predicts success rate. It is here because domain age and archive depth are free to check, and a provider whose public record starts last quarter deserves a smaller first order.
The questions behind the numbers
Support is a product feature
Support quality is invisible until it is the only thing that matters. A cheap provider that takes three days to answer a routing problem has cost you more than the saving, and no pricing page reveals that.
Nothing here stays true for long
Supply changes hands quietly in this industry. The network behind a brand can be replaced with no announcement, which is why a benchmark is a perishable good and a re-test is cheap insurance.
The limit that stops the job
Bandwidth is rarely the constraint on a real workload. Concurrent connections, requests per second and per-session caps are, and they are frequently buried in the documentation rather than the pricing page.
The comparison, honestly framed
Compare on these rows and ignore the feature lists on both sites:
| Question to ask | Proxy Buy | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | Read their current terms | Never |
| Minimum commitment | On their own terms page | None |
| Identity checks | Not published clearly, ask before paying | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Check the current terms, this one moves | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | Their terms page answers this | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
A table like this can rank the things that are written down. It cannot rank the thing that matters most, which is how the network behaves against the site you care about.
What to do instead of reading more comparisons
The steps below take about ten minutes and settle the question properly.
- Take the smallest paid unit each provider will sell you. A free trial works for a first pass, though trials sometimes ride better pools than paid plans do.
- Fire the same batch through both on one afternoon. Different days are different conditions, and that ruins the comparison.
- Write down two numbers per provider: the share of requests that succeeded, and the traffic it cost.
- Take a handful of the addresses you were given and verify their country and type against a checker you do not control.
- Choose on the measurement, not the marketing, and expect the answer to change within a year.
The rest of the shortlist
Buyers comparing this name usually have two or three of these open in other tabs:
- Proxyaxe alternatives
- Proxyaz alternatives
- Proxybase alternatives
- Proxybasic alternatives
- Proxyblocks alternatives
- Proxyboost alternatives
Where we fit
For completeness: residential from $0.44 per GB, city and ISP targeting included, no monthly minimum, and a balance that stays where you left it. We are a good fit for uneven workloads and a poor one for anybody who wants a signed enterprise agreement.
