An arbitrator with the National Arbitration Forum has awarded the domain name Basspro.xxx to Bass Pro Intellectual Property LLC . The company submitted a complaint to the National Arbitration Forum on March 5,2012,asserting legal rights over the disputed domain name.The company own trademark registrations for the "Bass Pro" and "Bass Pro Shops" marks.Therefore,the domain name is identical to its trademark.

Moreover,the company contended and managed to demonstrate that the respondent registered and used the disputed domain name in bad faith :

"Respondent submits that after the Complaint was initiated, she offered to transfer the disputed domain name to Complainant in return for the reimbursement of her purchase cost and the fee that she was charged when the disputed domain name was created. She further submits that Complainant did not respond to her offer.

Respondent’s offer, however, was not made until after Complainant had commenced proceedings under the Policy. Prior to the commencement of this Complaint Respondent had taken the position that she had "no intention" of transferring the domain name to Complainant."

The Panel ordered the disputed domain name to be transferred from the respondent to the complainant.
