Here’s a short compiled list of trademark violations sold or for sale on Flippa.
The Australian domain auction house where domain investors are being talked down, according to Andrew Knibbe‘s post at John Chow’s pro-Blog seems unwilling to utilize any resources in order to exclude obvious trademark violations from its marketplace.
The end result: serial flippers register and attempt to sell one such violation after another on Flippa.com, knowing that their domains and skeletal web sites won’t be removed from the Flippa auction listings!
Enjoy!

Domain investing is dead.
The future is TM infringing domains + websites!

Savant – Nice work. Facebook has one of the most aggressive policies against trademark violations out there.
Brad – Too funny 😀
Go back and read the John Chow blog post comments again as Andrew Knibbe has now been responding to the comments the past few hours. Interesting reads.
Chow Cow – Indeed, interesting seeing Andrew Knibbe of Flippa-flopping on what he wrote about Rick Schwartz, Sedo and domain investors 😀
