Several risk-takers participated in a last minute battle over the domain name Oreos.com, which was being auctioned publicly at DropCatch.
During the final 10 minutes of the auction, a bidding war erupted, sending the price of Oreos.com from $210 to the final bid of $1,650.
That bid, placed by someone using the username “afxxy5“, was ahead of the 2nd bid by a mere $50 dollars.
Some assert that Oreos.com carries an inherent potential for a UDRP by its former owners, food giant Kraft Foods.
Despite the lack of an exact trademark – the mark is “Oreo” – and a Greek word reference, Oreos.com is a hot potato domain to own under the circumstances.
