I just got an email from someone asking if this domain was for sale, it comes from a yahoo address so not sure what to make of that. But someone else said in this forum that even big companys use free email addresses to try & get a better price.

Anyways, any suggestions to what I should say?

Thanks.

Don't give them a price right away, ask them what they are willing to offer.

This was their response:

hi,

i haven't really bought that many domains. what would you say would be fair for us both? also do you have any other domain names?

Thanks,

What ya's think?

 

[Sharpy]

Ever notice how most offers via email start out with, "Hi I've never done this before..." or "What's the process for this..." or "I see you have a name for sale that would br perfect for my daughtter's doll club..."

Might be top-scripts.net who is looking?

Haha.....yeah, I think that they are most definatley trying to get the domain for cheap by playing the "I can't afford much, look at me with my free email address & my unprofessional emails (meaning uncapitlized words & such)" pus the fact that you pointed out sharpboy.

Thanks mudfence. Think I should ask for around low retail?

 

[NameCaster]

Start high...go from there.

That a pretty good name even though it contains a hypen.
Look at hot-scripts

Thanks Doc! Was that meant as a whoesale value or what I should offer it to the end-user for?

Anyways, as for that end-user, here is how the emails have gone so far....it's the first time I've done this so thats why I am posting it to see if I've handled it ok.

Hello,

After considering things, I am willing to accept offers around the $1100 mark.

As for other domains, yes I have many, really depends on what your looking for.

Thanks,

*****,

Well, depends on how you look at it. Good domains aren't cheap; it's up to the individual to decide if it's worth spending the one-time fee to obtain the domain they genuinely want; they can easily base their business around another domain that can be obtained for the normal registration cost, but the question is, would you be happy with this domain/business name in the long run?

As stated in the last email, I'll accept offers around that mark, so the domain is negotiable. Feel free to chuck out an offer & we can go from there.

As for other webmaster related domains, I currently don't have anymore available sorry.

Regards,

Brett
