closed New Mountain Dew domain! HOT!

[phrone]

I'd like some appraisals and not hiding tips please. I realize I will most likely end up losing them, but a little positive feedback would be nice instead of all this crap.

.. a little update:

51 black dew mountain pitch

..keep in mind this has not even been released to the public yet.

 

[Steen]

$0!

How many times do you have to be told?

 

[phrone]

OVT isn't worth anything anymore? I guess that sucks for me.

Anyways.. I was forwarded the legal department and they are calling me tonight, and if they can't then they will call me tomorrow for sure.

I will fill in those who would like to know about it.. post here if you want to be PMed the outcome.

 

[phrone]

I'm getting a letter in a few days with whats going to happen.. I'm 90% that they don't even want the domains

 

[Jonathan]

I'd like to hear the outcome...

 

[DNWizardX9]

keep me posted on the outcome ;-)

 

[Bionic]

Uhmmm,

they took your details, they sent it to the legal department, and they're about
to write you a letter.... you've never been arrested before have you?

 

[DNWizardX9]

the wrong thing here is that you asked mountain dew about the domains you currently have in your possession and recently registered. The legal team's job is to go against all trademark domains. They won't let you go easily.

 

[phrone]

Well we will see what happens!

I don't think they will even want them..

I was doing some research and they bought the name "MountainDewPitchBlack.com" so why would they want "PitchBlackMountainDew.com"? If anything, they will ask for me to give it up.. big whoop.

 

[Jonathan]

They'll probably ask you for them, since they know you'll surrender them.

 

[DNWizardX9]

You'll end up losing the domains. They will call you a cybersquatter

 

[Jack Gordon]

...they bought the name "MountainDewPitchBlack.com" so why would they want "PitchBlackMountainDew.com"?

:laugh:

you're right. why would they possibly have any interest in that? :smartass:

 

[DNWizardX9]

when you registered it you had the name mixed up like Mountain Dew Code Red would have been www.mountaindewcodered.com so you know how they do it

not pitchblackmountaindew.com

 

[phrone]

No there was no confusion. I only registered it because it was the only combination open.

 

[ShaunP]

phrone ... I can't believe you are wasting so much of your time and energy on crap like this. It is a waste of time!!!! Put your energy into acquiring "real" names instead of this kind of crap. Really.

Because it's got something to do with marijuana, just answer me why it does.

 

[phrone]

Well it's been a while.. Mountain Dew said to expect a letter from them, and I never got one.

So what now?

 

[DNWizardX9]

contact them again and offer to sell it and say you'll come down in price
