A UDRP has just been filed against the domain name HoldOn.com
The domain name has an original registration according DomainTools.com of March 18th 1997 making the domain 14 years old.
However Screenshots has results for HoldOn.com going back to 1994.
The domain name is owned by a Dharrshinee Naidu of New York.
The domain is parked and according to Screenshots has been parked since at least 1996.
Amicus Trade AB of Sweden filed the complaint.
According to the website of the company which is located at Holdon.info, it was formed in 1992 and started selling products under the HoldOn name in 1999.
Holdon.info was first registered in 2001 according to DomainTools.com
Here is the story of Holdon According to the company’s website:
“Once upon a time there was a farmer in the small village of Hol in Sweden – who got tired of ripped tarps and eyelets getting ripped off. He came up with a fastening device to solve the problem and went to a manufacturer nearby and asked them to produce the device/gear – a “don” in Swedish, made out of strong glass reinforced nylon. He named the product Hol-don and applied for a patent. His paths was crossed by Amicus Trade AB (Holdon Systems), a banner material supplier to the Sign Industry and together they developed new application fields for the product.
And so… the story begins…”
If you wondering the domain name Hold-On.com is for sale at BuyDomains.com.
Is this world coming to an end? What is wrong with these UDRP’s or am I missing something.
“The domain name has an original registration according DomainTools.com of March 18th 1997 making the domain 14 years old.”
Wouldn’t that make the domain 17 years old instead of 14 years old?
How long shall it take for us to see a filing claiming Microsoft.com on the ground that someone already owns a “Mic Ros Oft” trademark, say in Germany?
RDHJs should be punishable and lead to the criminal records. That would do.
Have just check, they don’t even run holdon.se
Hold on to your tarps!
HOL-DON.com is bang on and … AVAILABLE
