I'm starting a new company and found a company name I'd like to use. I found the .com parked and owned by someone, offered an amount and he's willing to accept the amount, nice one word domain (registered since 1997).

Checked TESS (US government trademark search registry) and saw only one company using the same word as the one in the domain I'm planning on buying, which I'm planning as my company name.

They're in a completely different industry, not even related in the least bit. I don't believe this will be a problem down the road? I know of multiple companies with the same trademarked words in different industries.

Anyone with any insight to give me a little piece of mind before I drop a nice chunk of change on the domain and go forward with my own trademark in the industry I'm planning to enter?
