Assuming the grace period doesn't exist anymore, would this be a
good policy (comments welcome): <br>
<br>
-- Domains should come with a "no resale" period of, say, 3 months
once bought.<br>

This needs be stopped. I can only surmise the technical
underpinnings of the business model of such services as a "<span
style="font-family: Verdana; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size:
10pt;">boutique domain service that helps connect businesses
with their 'perfect web domain match' "</span>, but i'm pretty
sure i can't imagine no kosher way of going about it.<br>

Apparently Godaddy has a "hold" on the name and it's now part of
and auction where I can only buy it from Godaddy for $11.99 a
year.<br>
<br>
Tell me what this "hold" is that allows GoDaddy to apparently
grab names without actually buying them?<br>
<br>
Here's the correspondence I had with the guy who registered it.<br>

<div>Hey Marc,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We're not sure the thought that went
behind purchasing this specific name. We do
know that the particular domain scout who
purchased this domain approaches repetitive
programs. In fact, since we agree with you
that this is a very user friendly domain
we've placed holds on several other
territorial "FarmersMarket" domains that
this domain scout owns and have facilitated
the connection of ownership to the end user
like yourself. I agree with you and feel
that to reach maximum success with a
territorial Farmers Market that your ".com"
should be informational, non abbreviated,
straight forward, and easy to remember.
Seeing that you've contacted me I can
promise that I will allow you first stab at
this domain. I can contact the scout this
afternoon, and expedite this exchange! I'll
advise once i have more direction.</div>

<div>I'm part of a group that's starting a
farmers market in Gilroy. We would like to
have it. How is it that this name came to
your attention? Was it from my domain
search and not registering it immediately?<br>
<br>
I'm somewhat confused. <br>
