What a jack-hole to steal the domain! People suck sometimes. Glad you got it going again!

the hilarious thing is that they were probably trying to make a buck off of us... if only they knew what our finances looked like! ha!

They have a spot on the site where you can make an offer to buy it. I offered $1. For some reason that wasn't high enough?

Maybe I'll double my offer in a week or so

Their site will not take small numbers anymore. I offered $1.25 and got an error message that they expect three to four figures (yea, sure). The message also said I should enter a minimum of $60.

I saw that.... Got a kick out of the website statistics too. 31 unique visitors in the last month!!! Worth every penny of 3 to 4 figures for that kind of traffic!

Maybe I'll offer the $60. I've blown more on worse...

It is clearly being held for name speculation so I don't think I would want to pay them anything.
