Hi, I'm a noob to this forum. Here is my story. I bought a home from one of the top 10 home builders in the US. The home sucks. I registered ******sucks.com (the ****** is the name of the builder). I put up a simple website just telling people to re-think buying a home from this builder and if they already bought a home from them to email me their horror story. My site also had the builder's logo + $475k = a picture of an oversized piece of crap (with windows, a door and a chimney) sitting in a toilet. I received a letter from the lawyer representing the builder saying that I have infringed on the builders copyright. I took down their logo as they "requested" in their letter (but have kept the site up). I had perviously put a disclaimer on the bottom of the page that the logo was the registered trademark of the company. Anyway, the bottom of their letter states that they would be "willing to pay a reasonable fee to cover your expenses" if I transfer the domain name to them. The builder had registered ******sucks.net and .info 2 months after I registered .com.
I have already replied to them that I would entertain any offers (and that I have complied with their requests).
Any advice from anyone. What would be a reasonable offer from a company that had a net profit of $481 million in 2005? Thanks
