Are we talking a couple hundred? Thousands? I need advice.

I had a domain "stolen" and was advised that I should offer them about 2 grand. Since it is your name, you could probably make a pretty easy cybersquatting case. But my understanding is it would take a minumum of 2K in legal fees.
So offering 2K could make it much easier.
(I'm not a lawyer and didn't take that advice. Just passing it on)
of course...if ther person who has the name seems reasonable, I would hint at cybersquatting laws and offer 300 for their troubles...and maybe a set of "The Best of Irons" ;)
