Selling on Sedo

[namegamer]

Any thoughts of whether to list prices or just indicate "Make Offer" when listing names on Sedo's Featured Listings?

It's hard to say, it depends on the domain name if you ask me.

What would you rather see if you went in as a buyer? What if you went into a store and all the tags said make offer.

I am thinking about putting buy it now prices on all my domains. At least that way people know the price.

I know that if you're getting a price you are satisfied with then putting a price on the domain is fine. However, with a name in the Featured Showcase what's not to say that an offer much higher than one you might set yourself is presented or if the exposure brings multiple higher offers? A lot of money could potentially be left on the table.

If your price expectations are completely unreasonable then you should probably be using "make offer". That way only 1 potential buyer will realize this when you make a counter-offer. Leaving a ridiculous asking price attached to the name in the listings is usually enough to push away real buyers, especially "end user" buyers. That usually takes all the money "off the table" as you put it.

It states on Sedo that it is better to have an asking price but you may want to get a domain appraisal or at least get advice for a fair market price or you may end up too high or too low. If not, you may end up either scaring potential buyers off with a price too high or selling too low when you could have gotten more for it with a little research.
