Especially if you a selling the companies product you are falling in the good faith category and it would cost several thousand dollers for the company to get the domain transferred to them, not to mention the long process. Zippos.net is not a $10,000 domain. I could go on and on about this issue but have to go get brunch so I'll leave it at that
So long as you sell their product, most don't give a shit. Weber even lost when they tried to get their dot com from their leading internet marketer because the court said the marketer was doing just as fine a job of promoting them as they ever could and probably was more experienced with internet marketing...
