I believe I’m in very a advantageous position but my hands are tied. I placed a backorder for a domain and now I’m part of an auction that’s way out of my reach. The domain is a misspell of a very, very popular domain, the auction is at $10500 at the moment and it is going to end in 29 hours.(12/10/07 10:30am est). I believe this domain is worth much more than that since I read an article about a misspelled domain being sold for 200k. There are only 5 bidders allowed for this auction including me but I don’t have the pockets to keep up. I not even know how this could work but if there’s anyone out there interested please let me know.
stay away from it. The laws have changed and if the company with the non misspelled name can prove you only have it be cause it is misspelled, then they can claim it under their copyright.
