Manual appraisal for Selling purpose.

[virtualhunter]

I have a client that wants to buy several of my domain names in bulk around 50 names.
I gave him a reasonable price for the names but he wants to have a manual appraisal done from a reliable source/company done by myself.
Usually is it the buyer that needs to pay for the manual portfolio appraisal or the seller?
And in either case, what are the best manual appraisers for domain names?
Thanks.

You don't have a serious buyer.

Beware of them offering to use their service for appraisal.

You've got a lowballer.

Tell them to accept the offer you gave or walk away.

Chances are even if you got 50 appraisals, they would still not want to pay your price.

You have a low, low, lowballer.

Can you post your client's request for appraisals, so we can see if it smells like a scam?

Also, a 4 year member with (this being) 3 posts - if you spent even a little amount on the forum you would know this.

Great chance that this is a scam, scam, scam.

They will probably tell you that they have an appraiser or appraisal service they use and want you to pay to use that service.

I doubt we even need to see it to know it.

But, lets do it for educational purposes.

"appraisal scam"

The buyer is a very active member of "http://www.thenamepros.com" forum in domain names. With the posts he made... I can see he is an active domain names buyer.
He buys a lot of domain names and we already agreed on the price (xxx$) of a specific name that he will pay by paypal.
Now he's interested in a bulk sale of about 50 names and I'm selling them at half price the appraisal from valuate.com/estibot.com
The names are very decent names to very good premium descriptive names.

Sorry but it's a well known-scam.
thenamepros.com is NOT namepros.com the famous domain forum.
They are using a similar name for the intended purpose of confusion.
It's the appraisal scam.

>>> SCAM <<<

You REALLY, REALLY, REALLY need to go back to the very basics if you are relying on that.


You ask for a response, you get several announcing SCAM, and you want to argue your point and ignore other.


Good luck with that.

Why doesn't namepros get a lawyer and shut these scumbags down? :?:

It needs to be done before many others are scammed.
