question Owner offered $XXX or legal process

[Bohdan]

Hi, pros. I need urgent advice.
Recently, I regged domain and made outbound to 3d studio with short exact match name.
They have responded, that they willing to get it for $XXX, othervise they will:
"...start a legal process to recover that domain which legally belongs to us as is a registered brand". But I have not found any registered TM for this name. Will PM with the name if needed.
Your thoughts, guys?

there are np members who openly said in various threads that one should not even be refered to as a domainer, unless he is doing outbound on his domains... as in... relying mostly or even exclusively on outbound for his sales.

I'm confused, is the EU TM still valid?

I checked against dronePhone.co which I registered. LG is developing one now.
It stated clearly in the status of the Chinese company that one had this trademark that it was now "ended". TM View

Was the trademark you were talking about active or ended?
