Paid appraisals

[blackcatgill]

does anyone know of any good paid for appraisal sites ? ive had an email of someone about a couple of my domains , i dont think its for real to be honest , there asking for appraisals for my domains , from experts , then recommending 2 appraisal companies to have my domains appraised , hmm bit fishy , lol

anyhow for future reference is there any good paid for appraisal sites out there ? i know theres the free one on here , but just wandering weather a paid for one would be better ?

thanks

DO NOT PAY THOSE GUYS FOR APPRAISALS.

This is commonly known as the "appraisal scam", please search for this term at NamePros and you'll get 100s of threads.

Good Luck.

Typical appraisal scam....can you please post the name of the sender's details/ email or website that they're asking for you to appraise at, so that other potential domainers are aware of staying away from this scumbag?.

sure no problem , its the email that seems to be doing the rounds , but with a different name !

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.

To avoid mistakes I asked domain experts about reputable appraisal companies.

Please check this blog with suggestions from other sellers and buyers:
domainexplorer.org ]Domain Talk[

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.

Hello,

If an offer seems to be too good to be true...
It probably is!

Appraisals for the most part are only as good as the paper they're printed on, with their signature signed next to it telling a bank to give you money.

If someone wouldn't be prepared to pay that amount then don't trust them :p
