"EJS", allbeit, might not frequent this forum too much, but I can tell you that I've been following him and his blog for the last two years, and IMO, a very well respected member of the domaining community, and I'm sure he's doing this from the bottom of his heart (and even if he wasn't, I wouldn't mind paying him for his services because I value it that much)!.
Thank you for the compliment - and thank you for reading my blog. I am doing this because I enjoy helping people. Other than my time, it costs me nothing and I want to help someone else.

So you are acting as broker, basically, with a little more information to offer? You have pointed to your blog and have posted a second time and it still is very vague. This is why I don't trust whatever it is you are selling in a forum with all the info in the world anyone would need to do what you claim you can do....for a price.
No not acting as a broker at all. If anything you could call it an advisor or coach or something like that. I am not going to make a penny and that's how I want it. I hope the person sells 2 names for $500 each and then goes on to do it again many times over, and I don't want anything in return whatsoever.
To clarify, I plan to select one person randomly from the list. I will learn about that person's interests to see what types of domain names might be interesting to him or her. For example, a car repair expert will know 100x more about car parts, repairs, and other things than I would, so the focus on finding a couple of unregistered, re-sellable domain names might be in that vertical.
I will share specific information about what I like to look for in finding domain names because I generally don't blog about the names I sell out of respect for the buyers. I will then work with the person to identify possible buyers for the domain name(s) and come up with the sales strategy to hopefully sell the name for $500 or less (not bad for a $10 investment). If negotiations are necessary, I will assist as best I can to get the seller the best possible price.
Instead of simply buying a name, reselling it, and then blogging about it myself, I will work with someone (I guess you could say mentoring or coaching) and hopefully it will lead to a successful sale for this person. If not a sale, at least it will give more insight into how I make end user sales.
You don't have to participate if you're skeptical.
BTW, I am traveling later today and won't be back for a little more than a week, so if people have questions or comments, I am more likely to check my blog than here when on vacation
If you're in the US, have a great holiday weekend. If you're not in the US, have a great weekend too!
