Fun idea! I just signed up with an old domain, hope someone else might have the time to do something hilarious with it.

#32I hope that no one gives away a domain that has a trademark or trademark "typo" in it.

Eh, if you don't want it and it costs money to transfer, then you don't have to take it. It's not like there will be a grim reaper debt collector coming after you.......
This reassures me since I know you are not asshole. I'm sold.
I fully expect something to go very wrong with this, so I'm just preparing to not care when it does. :)

I believe there's a 60 or 90 day period before you can transfer a domain after you've registered it anyways.
You can usually transfer it to another user on the same registrar. They just don't want to lose it to another company. (At least, that's my super rough understanding of it.)
You should match people that have submitted domains from the same registrar so fees are avoided in most cases.

#36Neat. So tempted...
Re: Web Domain White Elephant Exchange
#37So I can exchange a domain I don't want for a domain I don't want, correct?
Yes, that's exactly the point. Have some fun & do stupid things. (With that said... there are some really, really great domains in this list. So you might get lucky.)
I signed up. Will you share the list of domains after they've been exchanged? Thanks for doing this, it should be fun!

That's the plan! Going to post a list of all domains and who sent/received them at webdomainwhiteelephantexchange.com

The funny thing is someone didn't know the above was sarcasm based on your previous response. I like the idea and I think it'll turn out fine.
