i wouldn't consider offers or inquiries to purchase my domains as spam...
I agree with you. I send email inquiries similar to the one Acro posted. The way I see it, if someone thinks it's spam and disregards it, they're missing out on a potential sale.
I really don't want to make the initial offer for a domain if at all possible. I prefer to try to discover how much the registrant is expecting, or if the registrant is even interested in selling. Then I know whether I want to pursue negotiations or not. Yes, I could throw out the first number, but in negotiations, the first person to throw out a number is often left at a disadvantage.
That said, I do realize there are plenty of actual spammers and scammers out there ("appraisals", "listing services", etc.) trying to part you and your money -- or you and your domains.
