Absolutely! Look for yourself... The first time I ran the query was 5/16/2020. Other users ran it before that and sure enough, someone ran it at 11:58:53 on 5/20/2019, just 7 days after the date of the reported sale 5/20/2019. NameWorth doesn't use sales data in any form to inflate domain values. Never has and never will.

I'm not focusing on any one sale. Run any of Mike Mann's sales the second they are reported. It will be about the same.
See the results for Aptum(dot)com in my post above. Same deal. It would completely amaze me if more than 5% of domain investors put a price of $94,000 or more on that domain. Saying people should just do their own research is like saying they'll fix a problem...that they don't realize they have...by doing research. The people that don't know, just don't know. No clue. They'll put a $5k price on that domain all day long.
It isn't that a buyer will put it in a tool to "fit their budget". Do we go buy a $50,000 car for only $5,000 because that "fits out budget". No, we go buy a $5,000 car.
If it is a domain worth $50k,
the seller shouldn't be selling it for $5k. The buyer has the choice to either buy at $50k, settle for thiink.io for $20k, or save up their pennies for think.com.
Like you said yourself, doesn't matter what I show you, it will never change your mind. But ego/stubbornness is sometimes the most expensive thing we'll ever own. Expensive, in the form of opportunity cost.
Probably by cheating, I would guess...

I agree with this, you should definitely have a few months of experience before buying any domains (whether based on a tool, or advice in any form). Always buy with caution, and base your purchases off your own proven results.
Since you, josh, and stub are my biggest critics on here, never used the tool, and are all at a pro level of verified sales, I invite you to try it at my expense. I'll extend a free Gold plan to all 3 of you for a month. ("Free" for you, but the data will actually cost me about $12-14 per account) So essentially, I'll pay $36-42 for all of you to use it for the month.
Run your domains through that you feel have value, and look at the results. If it tells you 40% of your domains are worth $20,000+, it doesn't mean that you need to price it at that level. Price them at $9,500, or double their current value and see if anything happens.
If it does, awesome. Everyone wins. If not, bump them back down later.
Just give it a fair shake. That's all I'm asking.
Even if you already have higher prices on your domains, still worth a try.
Worst case...it will save you hours of time identifying if you have the next thiink.com in your existing inventory (...and if you don't want the domain, I'll probably pay you $500 for it)
