    OfficeShoes.TLD and CoachBags.TLD

    Hey,


    Few month ago, I saw that kind of doamins available for sale. It's product domains but are they legal issue free if they are developped for ecommerce?

    Case 1 : OfficeShoes.TLD

    Yes, there is a brand named "Office" and it's a shoes brand!
    What do you think if it was develooped for an ecommerce to sell shoes for office/bureau?

    Case 2 : CoachBags.TLD

    Coach is a wellknown brand for womens bags, so I think it will be dangrous to build something using that domain name. Don't you think so?
    But it's a bit like using the brand frigidaire, jeep (GP) or even freezer on a domain name...

    Thanks for your opinions.

    I'm no expert but it sounds like trademark infringement to me. You might try searching through TESS, but I would stay away from those domains personally. I'm sure they are trademarked in their respective industries. Again, I'm no lawyer, but that's my personal opinion.
