May 14, 2013 by Raymond Hackney

By: Raymond Hackney

HILCO Streambank is an advisory firm that is running a pretty big auction this month from May 20 to May 22. Some of the names are standouts and certainly should bring in a nice price.

Bargain.com Registered in 1998

ETM.com Registered in 1995 and believe it or not dropped 2 times

They are adding Tweeter.com to the auction which was announced today in a press release. The domain was registered in 1999 long before the creation of Twitter.

Here is the press release:

 

HILCO STREAMBANK ADDS NEW DOMAIN NAMES AND TRADEMARKS TO
MAY 2013 AUCTION
 
PREMIUM DOMAINS — TWEETER.COM and TWTR.COM – ARE ADDED TO EXISTING AUCTION LINE-UP OF BARGAIN.COM, ETM.COM, TJ MAXX® (AUSTRALIA- TJMAXX.COM.AU) AND LAMB & FLAG®

 Stores were located in New England, the Mid-Atlantic, the Southeast,
Chicago, Texas, Southern California, Phoenix and Las Vegas.  These
prominent domains and trademark will be added to the initial list of
domains and trademarks up for auction, including TJ Maxx® (Australia),
Lamb & Flag®, and Service Merchandise, as well as multiple premium
domain names, including ETM.com,  Bargain.com, BrandEquity.com, VirtualMall.com and 1800myWebsite.com.
 
“We
are excited to add the valuable Tweeter domain names to our auction,”
said David Peress, EVP of Hilco Streambank.  “This online auction
provides numerous opportunities to acquire highly desirable domain
names.  We have already received a substantial level of interest and expect the new additions to bring more.”

domain names and related intellectual property including trademarks,
customer lists and vanity phone numbers will be sold in separate lots on
Hilco Streambank’s proprietary online auction platform, HilcoIPAuctions.com, beginning on May 20th and closing May 22nd.  Interested parties should visit http://www.hilcostreambank.com/domainauction.asp or contact Hilco Streambank for more information.

    There’s a good chance that the winner of Tweeter will lose the domain IF he/she uses it in connection with Twitter.
    Now if Twitter wins it, that’s a whole new ball of wax.
    Although the domain has been continuously registered since 1999, the UDRP panels tend to consider change of ownership as a “new” reg, at least in their decisions.
    Potential bidders should tread carefully.
