Need some advice.

[jonm22]

hi, i was wondering if it is worth trying to sell a domain name
with facebook in it? i have noticed there might be some copyright issues with any domain names with facebook in.

any input would be appreciated thanks.

No, it's a bad idea.

The term "facebook" is trademarked.

Adding any characters, e.g. letters, numbers, hyphens, to the term does not bring about a name which is trademark-free. Especially where the term "facebook" is very distinct. This you probably know.

So parking/selling a name like that, means that you are benefiting from the trademark holders name.

This is considered cyber-squatting which is highly frowned upon in the Domain Industry.

Short answer: delete/drop the name.

It's just not worth it.

Besides, TM names rarely sell-unless the buyer is a newbie/unaware/tm holder buys it themselves.

But don't count on the latter-they could instead go the legal route and then you will have headaches, sleepless nights, fever, and a sore throat.

I hope you have a healthy budget for legal representation. Like 6 figures
