Experience Level: Intermediate
Advise on the following situation:
A .com name has been offered to me for £1700. I am happy to purchase it as it is perfect for a new project of mine.
However, the .co.uk is not available.
How do I ensure if I buy the .com that the company who owns the .co.uk can not compete with me.
At the moment - the .co.uk site is down.
Is there rulings suggesting first to trade can use the brand name?
How long does trademarks take to get registered?
Is there a risk to purchase the domain for £1700 and not be able to use it for my project?

Have you tried to contact the owners of .co.uk site owners? It doesn't matter how long it takes to register a trademark as long as you are the first one to apply.
