One of the valuable ones that I can spot is daz.com, "Daz" being a popular Procter & Gamble brand of soap powder (at least, in the UK): http://www.dazwhite.co.uk/ http://www.dazwhite.co.uk/ - I'd guess they'd quite like the .com for their brand.
- asb 16y agoIf anything I'd think the existence of Daz as an existing brand devalues it. Daz is a nice, pronouncable three letter domain but if someone were to buy it with the aim of developing it they may be put off by the prospect of P&G lawyers trying to strong-arm them into handing the domain over.
- staunch 16y agoFYI Even entertaining an offer from P&G could open him up to the possibility of losing the domain under ICANN's rules.
- tristanperry 16y agoIt depends when the Daz trademark was registered. The domain was regged in 1998, and if the TM was registered after this date then it should be okay. There are pushes by some US law makers (e.g. the silly Senator Olivia Snow) to change this so that TM holders have much more rights over domains, even if the domain existed before the TM, but for now it should be fine. Would be worth consulting a domain lawyer if an offer is made for it though.

- pbhjpbhj 16y agoDaz, as held by P&G, was filed for in 1941 in UK, class 3 - http://www.ipo.gov.uk/domestic?domesticnum=614056 http://www.ipo.gov.uk/domestic?domesticnum=614056. A company called Mills Brothers BV hold an internationally registered mark "Daz" in classes 18, 25 too. I'm sure there are several others.
