I just voted for $50k. I agree their price cap is way outdated.

Totally agree, They must keep up with the market changes...

At least give us the option to price however we want once we have a certain number of sales or a certain sales total. I think that makes sense if you're a "senior seller" or something.

Unlimited. I hate their limit.

At the very least a " limit " of 25K seems reasonable to this poll voter!

Virtually NONE of my names would be priced at or near that limit.

Nevertheless I support "up the limit " and allow the marketplace to decide value.

My domains would look "bargain priced" in a list of comparable names !

Good poll!

I selected 50k but even 25k would be a lot better then that lousy 10k cap.
I don't think I would want unlimited just because of all the people that would price their reg fee domains in the millions.

The limit is protecting 'SEDO's market', this clearly makes sense.
It also ensures that more sales take place (lower domain name prices = more sales = higher amount of commisions).
But in my opinion (voted) the limit should be 25,000 USD / EUR / GBP - this would allow more freedom in pricing.
Nevertheless, I don't think that they will change their limit because at the end this would reduce their chances to selling their own appraisals ;)

Add very rare one word .coms such as insurance or gold and have a good laugh at the valuation they suggest.

Either it's outdated or it's designed to sell valuations.

Same.

Their pricing cap is ridiculous and smells of a money making ploy for their "appraisal" services.

I wonder how many $99 appraisals they still sell these days.
I have never bought one.

Anyone here ever bought one?

I voted for $25K. I didn't vote unlimited because I think that can hurt the integrity of the marketplace. You'll have "noobs" setting $100,000 BINs on regfee names, then when serious investors/endusers are looking for higher-end names by valuations, it would be a mockery.

Question... USD is my monetary standard. Can I sell to someone using GBP? A quick exchange shows that 10,000GBP = about 15,000 USD. (I highly doubt I will ever sell a domain for that much, but it would be nice.)

Yes.

Another thing that I do not like is the pricing of "promote on homepage".

69 EURO, 69 GBP, or 69 USD for listing across all sites?

So those in US pay $39 to list on the UK site, but those in the UK have to pay $60 to list on the same site???

is there a domain that is worth more than 10k?

If yes why is there a cap? It should be unlimited. There are many 6-7 figure domains.

Yes it's outdated... you have to pay to list it higher. If you want over 10,000USD then change currency to EURO or GBP..

Never have, never will.

Basically the 10k limit to me = list expensive domain elsewhere

Yes I have taken domains off Sedo because of this.

Make you wonder how many other premium domains have not been listed because of this.
