It's not worth $5000.00 that's for sure.

I would Low XXX at best undeveloped.

Develop it and sell it for more.

Good Luck!

Marky5000,

Sounds like a definate scam. There are lots of threads relating to this kind of thing.

This MIGHT be one of those well known scams where they make you get the appraisal from a place they recommend and thus get money for it.

Tell him you will get it appraised and see if he recommends somewhere.

I'd be very wary of this - sounds like they could be trying to scam you for an appraisal:

did their original email look anything like the one in the above post?

he he.. wherever u suggest he'll ask u to get appraisal from allfordomains.com or a similar site. I firmly believe that this scammer is a member at all these domain name forums & goes through all these threads; hence revising his "methods" periodically a little.

Thanks all its a scam same as this link, http://www.namepros.com/warnings-an...aisal-scam.html. thanks for all your help i thought something sounded weird with the offer

Those scammers should really be stopped. It's outrageous!

You do have some good names for sale in your sig, but the above offer is "too good to be true".
Scam-tacular.

As already stated ... Anyone "Requiring" a certified appraisal from their suggested sites they trust - Is generally trying to scam you

Reg Fees at best IMO -
