![]() | Jason Bergeron, ceo@elitenethosting.com Scam: Can you accept 5,000 USD? Do you sell domain with a web site or just the name? Domain without content is ok with me. Web site is not necessary. Have you had your domain names evaluated in the past? I mean domain appraisals. Without valuation we cannot be sure in the sale price. It's very important for me in terms of reselling too. But we must engage a valuation company with REAL manual service. So I will only accept valuations from independent sources I and my partners trust. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=639974 To avoid mistakes I asked domain experts about reputable appraisal companies. If, for example, the valuation comes higher you can adjust your asking price accordingly. It will be fair. I also hope you can give me 12% - 15% discount. After you send me the valuation via email (usually it takes 1-2 days to obtain it) we'll continue our negotiations. What is your preferred payment method: Escrow.com, International wire transfer, PayPal.com or something else? Hope we can come to an agreement fast. Looking forward to your reply. Jason Bergeron ceo@elitenethosting.com CEO Elite Hosting Solutions LLC

Atleast they can give a real decent appraisal. Besides even i got similar emails, I played on and then in the end I insulted them pretty nicely. The forums and links they point to are also so pathetic. Never mind, but newbies can fall for them pretty easily. | ||||

![]() | Received the standard pitch posted several times above from Brad Ridding, and replied with what I thought was a high starting point for negotiation before I did any research. I had only owned the name for a week. He sent the second canned message suggesting the appraisals in which he offered me $5000 for ReunionShows(dot)com. It is kind of catchy, but $5k? Get real! Assuming at this point that he was just pushing appraisals, I decided to play along. (No offense to any REAL domain appraisers. My comments are designed to offend him.) I responded that "Anyone who claims they can tell you the real value of a domain is a liar and a thief. EstiBot does just as good a job at prognosticating value." I also told him I was not interested in appraisals and if that was what he wanted just take me off his list. And his reply was:
