Balls kicking in is a little harsh lol. Maybe a gentle kick up the bum.

Sold these guys a domain ages ago. I considered them savvy then. Maybe new leadership. This is pathetic.

I doubt that Sedo auction is even legit. Knowing that whois and having made offers on his names before I know that it won’t be accepted, but I’m testing that theory right now

After reading your very first paragraph, I knew exactly how this case should be decided. RDNH would have been a fitting conclusion too.

@ daily visitor – They probably didn’t think to check. After all, they didn’t notice that the current owner of the domain isn’t the same as the original one.

The point you make that they should have bought it from Sedo is valid.

Why spend $ 1,500. in filing fees plus the lawyer fees ($ 2K to $ 5K) when it would be a guaranteed ownership by paying $ 681?

I assume they wanted to set a legal precendent regarding typos of their domain.
Haven’t they already done that with other cases?
(I didn’t check)

I guess they figure buying the domain is like paying extortion??
