TM issues dont always make it 0$. Especially in cases like this where its not necessary an issue at all. Fansites are mostly allowed to use it by following few simple rules, so 0$ looks funny..

You aren't allowed to use TMed names unless you have an agreement in writing from the trademark owner or use it in a complete differently field where there's no confusion. I can't see what else the name would be used for. They may let you slide by for a while, but that can change at any moment depending upon the owner's feelings any particular day.

$0 in general, or $50-$100 if you never put a site up, fly under the TM owner's radar, and get someone to buy it for a vanity name or fan site so it's not in your hands anymore by the time it's used.

Does this doctor make house calls? If not, he's a "Dud" Theses so called hip hop names will be forgotten with time. Just my opinion for what it's worth. "Think Long Term"

How long term? Tupac Shakur has been dead for seven years but is still one of the most searched persons on the Internet.

Tupac who? Never heard of him.

Anyway; A rappers name with an dot org extension? Doesn't look right. Nonetheless I am thinking it is worth $50.

Fansites have been often allowed to operate their websites containing exact name of the star in the domain. Owners won a many UDRP cases, even though TM holder sued them. Its all about obbeying few rules.. Therefore this kind of domain isnt very profitable, but can be won in UDRP..

Take Tupac.com for example, where TM couldnt be any more obvious..
