I know someone with a bunch of photobooths. I want to develop some business around this. IN this effort, I registered http://www.photobooth.com

I need help from Ray setting this domain up along with the bioregion domain. Are you up for helping to set this up Ray? Thanks!

I want to get photobooth.com up because it is under attack . . . . . . we're under seige and I need to get this thing viable. Terry, I was rather surprised to find that my domain www.photobooth.com was no longer pointing to my web site and no longer registered to me in the Internic lookup da tabase; apparently the e-billing notice and bills were being sent to an old busi ness address, unknown to me. I spoke to Internic about this, as I have a fax do cument sent to them on 1/2/97 requesting to update my contact information, but a pparently this domain name was not updated, ultimately my error for not handling the detail. The reason I am sending you this email is to request that we come to a reasonable agreement to transfer the domain back as opposed to forcing me t o proceed thru Internic's "domain name dispute policy" with my fax as my only su pporting documentation. Bottom line, would you be willing to transfer this back to me, I'd pay you a few hundred $$ for your wasted time. I'd appreciate your understanding in this matter by not saying....how can I get thousands out of thi s situation, as this was a clerical error on my part. Thanks, Richard Attenberg 619-683-9300 sales@condominiums.com And then this: Reply-To: "m3166111" X-UIDL: 918861824.182 To: "Paul Terry Walhus" Subject: Re: terry: re-photobooth.com (request to transfer) Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 01:52:34 -0800 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 I'd be willing to pay $500 to get the name back, otherwise, I'd go through the "domain dispute policy" and put the domain on hold until resolved with Internic. In my opinion, that's a nice profit for no effort. What company are you affiliated with that actually manufactures photobooths? I wish this guy would just bug off. I registered this name to do a "cyber" photobooth at South by Southwest and this guy's trying to grab it from me! I have a legitimate Spring business I'm spinning off. So you can see why I'd like to get the site up and running.

What finally happened in this case? Painful, to say the least!

~terry Tue, Jan 11, 2000 (03:16) #10

It sold, it's in the process of transferring.
