Trading with domains that contain trademarks?

    Interstingly, Sedo.com refused the park or list a handful of my domains. The magic word seems to be "nokia" or "google", which is quite interesting as they had no problems listing a domain with "iphone"!

    IHATENOKIA.COM
    NOKIA-DOWNLOAD.COM
    NOKIA-XSERIES.COM
    BEST-NOKIA-GAMES.COM
    GOOGLE-ANDROID-PHONES.COM

    At least a couple of them could be very useful, or easy to utilize as websites. It is highly unlikely that Nokia (or Google) would challenge these, and actually doubtful that they would succeed if they would try it.

    Is this common practice in domain trading? Whats the logic behind it - I do see *nokia* domains listed at Sedo? Is some other trade platform more flexible in this?
