I have about 6 domains (.com) which I regged or were regged from 1997-2001 that have since (in the past 4 years in all cases) become the chosen brand name for several companies, from a software firm, clothing brand, medical drug etc. and it seems all have gone to the exent of TM'ing the name - again years after the domain was regged. I know this is a common case and I will get the recent example of Rick Shwartz and iReport.com - but I do have his skills quite yet, so what is the best way to deal with this, if I dont want to put up a site for each to claim my legitimiacy (1 already has had site for years)
I've only gotten an offer for 2 of the 6, both being quite low - I could imagine Rick swinging $xx,xxx deals on each as the potential suitors are large companies - but eitherway I just want to get soe deals done on these and go forth.
Any advice besides dev'ing? How to get talks going with those how havent tried to make offers - how to let them all know where to stick it if they try to use legal or scare tactics (lol, I usually dont go for it anyway).
