"Why you are advertising that you are selling a (3) three letter domain when you are not?"

"Because xn--tp-jbc.com translates to top.com, a (3) three letter domain name."

Could someone explain this to me? All I am reading here is lies lies, bs, bs, I don't really own top.com, lies, lies, bs, bs...

I read over that crap.

I would say that xn--tp-jbc.com in no way represents any 3 letter domain.

I conclude that the seller is a complete tosser.

I'm surprised that ebay allows this... its a total misrepresentation. Although the seller does somewhat clarify what he is selling in small type at the bottom.... the graphics, headlines etc. describe a totally different product. Maybe Top.com will find out their name is being offered for sale and sue.

No, it makes it a 7 letter, 10 character, triple-hyphen domain that when translated can apparently mean "top".

Better to laugh at this crap than let it raise your bloodpressure.

I see it's been removed by $bay.

This is what gives IDNs a bad name...

He/she is using the Greek letter ο (Omicron, 15th letter of the Greek alphabet) as the Latin letter 'o'.... It's basically a bullshit name and glad to see that $bay have taken it down.
