    In the process of purchasing www.youtubecreditcard.com for quite alot of money,

    So, am i getting ripped off or is it a good deal (fully developed site - 200 incoming links/ SEod throughout and sent to 2000 blog/5000 engines)

    I don't know what it would be worth, but personally, I'd be scared that it has "youtube" in there...

    Yup the domain definitely has trademark issues.

    Google has deep pockets and they probably will fight you and take the domain from you (at worst).

    While YouTube Credit Cards doesn't infringe on video it's pretty obvious where the name originally originated from.

    I don't mean to scare you in any way but just telling you that a name with a trademarked term is always risky to own.

    What would you, or anyone use it for?
    Drop it. Don't buy it.
    Don't buy other peoples names or trademarks. It's cheap, kind of sleezy, and will get you sued.

    What would you be holding it for? In case You Tube comes out with a Logo'ed Visa, or Mastercard?
    If that happens, they will just take the name from you.

    Bad name, trade marks, 4 words. Its just not very friendly and I wouldn't risk it, especially for a lot of money as you've stated.


    Cheers

    Do not buy, you will hardly be able to recover the cost.

    forget it, it has trademark issue.
    domain should be expired naturally.
