Item 3 of the FAQ [1] implies that there's not a separate arbitrator fee on top of the $299 filing fee, and the arbitration agreement [2] mentions nothing about an arbitrator fee.

So my question is: What qualified arbitrator would be willing to:

* review the documents submitted by the parties;

* conduct a hearing (via Skype or G+ Hangout?); and

* explain in writing the reasons for his/her award, as required by the "Timeline" section of the arbitration agreement [2];

all for an absolute maximum of US$299 per case?

Agree. By comparison a single panelist UDRP for a domain name is $1500 ($1300 a little less at adrforum.com)

1. Libertarian arbitrators who love the long term goals of judge.me and want to help.

2. Young CIArb arbitrators who have a hard time getting into the very small market of very lucrative multimillion dollar arbitration claims.

Edit: The arbitration hearing is email based. So the process is totally asynchronous, takes only about 2 hours (3 max) of the arbitrator's time.
