www.ChowJohn.com for sale

It's simply the reverse of a johnchow.com which if you don't know is probably one of the most successful blogs ever.

Anyways. I have it for sale, best offer, we'll start at $40.

It's in no way a lawsuit. I actually asked John himself if he was interested in the name. He simply replied that he wasn't. And if it was a legal issue, can you imagine how many other John Chow's would sue him if he won? Cmon now, use your head.

Your logic regarding other people named john chow is flawed, but do what ever you want.

All the best

Your original logic of a common named person suing me for owning their domain name in reverse is flawed.

I take it you have never visited Nissan.com. If you are in the USA, it does not matter what legal rights you think you have. All it takes is finding a judge that disagrees with you or in anyway thinks differently and the other side has a case. Whether they have a winning case is a whole different story, but winning case or not, it WILL COST YOU A TON!

If you are any of the following you do not qualify to buy my domain.

1. Paranoid
2. Dumb
3. Ignorant
4. Misinformed
5. Think that the law is out to kill you
6. Believe that losing, or even being in, a lawsuit will cost you millions (it can only cost you what you're worth)...and if you're 1-5 on this list it's likely you aren't worth much. Btw, for the ppl that are 1-5, being in a lawsuit under self representation costs you zero money. Courthouses do have cover charges like a night club.

If you aren't interested in the domain, please, for the sake of everyone intelligent, go away. If you think this post is harsh, you are probably included in 1-6....and I bet you'll post something stupid too.

Seems like a lot of hassle for a $40 domain name where you would only buy it to create a blog that tries to copy a successful blog. Don't people like blogs cause they provide unique content? But happy bidding everyone, I'm not much of a blogger myself
