Congrats to both the seller and buyer. bbb.mobi is a fine name.

Nice sale. I was in the bidding but I couldn't hang

colombani · 11-17-2006, 04:12 AM

I was in the bidding
I put proxy biddings because the end was very late in the night for me.
I underestimate the final price
regrets because it was a fine name
congrats to the bidder

Is it again Jeremy ? He'll buy all mobis or he want his name's in DNJOURNAL every week ?

jeremyp · 11-17-2006, 08:41 AM

I can confirm that I did win a SEDO auction in the last few days, and that I did bid on an auction that night!

I'll tell you which one once the name is transfered. :-)

It was a good deal.

Right, but who has the trademark for bbb? Probably not the Black & Blue Bananas group. And that's all that matters.

A trademark for those letters? haha.. only if the buyer started posting things about how to make Business better for those at their own Bureau... otherwise a trademark for letters is pretty much a joke... the guy that owns WWF.com just won his case

Ok, I can play this game.

Here's why he won the case:

Quote:

"Whilst there is no time limit for filing a complaint under the Policy, it can become more difficult for a Complainant to infer bad faith registration the greater the distance between the dates of registration and of the filing of the Complaint," said the WIPO ruling.

and 2:

Quote:

"The interval between the Domain Name registration in January 2003 and the appearance of wild-life etc. links on the website some time after April 2005 is just too long to justify an inference of bad faith registration at the time of registration," it said.

I'll add, however, that I'm sure whoever purchases bbb.mobi will probably not do so in bad faith to the Better Business Bureau. But:

Yes, a trademark for those letters. That is how trademarks work.

If you do more research on your WWF example, you will also see that the WWF finagled many domains that were registered in bad faith from the registrants. It's not so 'haha' funny.

Infringment ...NONSENSE

If the BBB wanted that or if their IT coridinator wanted it they would of done it during the trademark period. They had ample time to get that name over a that trademark periord. But they didint! (the early bird catches the late worm) Therefore its their loss.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=258913

Plus trademaks are an open market in an open world, un less it realates to a particular field (their Market). Just because you have a trademark doesnt mean you can get the domian automaticly (unless your google, microsoft ect.... when most of your business is web-based/computer-based ect...) Anway The Better Buisenss Burea should have to wait in line just like the rest of us to get the name they want unless they act early. "You can't own the alphabet -Biff"

Its just my oppinon of the trademark issues (sorry for the typos)
