How many personal domains do you own?

Over the past couple of years I've bought up several that caught my fancy (family names, cool names, etc). Sad thing is I don't really have any plans for them other than to park them for future use.

Is this abnormal or a waste of my money? Is it unusual to own 5-10 domains and really not use them for anything??

Or maybe you could sell it to Nissan.

think it would work? how much should i ask for?
i'll have to change is soon anyways.. i ordered a SE-R emblem, going to put that on my car... (yay rice!) and as we all know, the rebadging of my car will be as good as getting the actual sentra se-r, and will make it faster too.

It's risky. If Nissan owns the trademark on "Sentra XE" then they could just sue you for the rights, cost them nothing but legal fees. But, if you could ask for a guestimate price that would be cheaper than legal fees, they might go for it. That is, if they want it. I'd say keep it under $5k.

Zilch. Been tempted a few times, but, just haven't found one I'm willing to pay for.

Me and a buddy are about to buy one...we're going to both use it for any kind of webspace we need. Sick of the free hosting crap. Not gonna reveal the name til its bought though :p It's very catchy though...and .com, .net, and all the other variations of it are still available.
