While I don't think you should be allowed to use a trade marked domain name unless you own the trade mark I see nothing wrong with buying it, either to hold onto to make life more difficult for your competition (no different than scooping up a peice of property in the real world that you know your competition wants) or selling it back to them for a profit.

Thats just capitalism
