When I asked for an appraisal I am confident it would be
at least above reg fee for one of the multiple choices. I can handle the the truth, if it comes with justification. "Reg fee because z y or z". Anyway, again, I do appreciate the time people take. Cheers
Updated the OP too.
If you want justification on appraisals, pay for them. Appraisals are done for free by people that have been in the industry or niche for a while. Why should they type out a 500 word justification as to why they are reg fee to XXXX? Some will, if they have the time. As will the same people post just their price.
Nice to see that you can handle the truth, but there isn't a rule to justify an appraisal.
Attention: Please remember that members donate their time for free to provide appraisals to other members. It's common sometimes to receive a $0 or reg fee appraisal, please don't take it personally and keep in mind that people tend to use different valuing systems. If your thread doesn't receive an appraisal within a few days you can usually assume other members didn't see enough instant value in it to research further.
Do NOT be offended by the appraisals you receive, as they reflect opinions from individuals who are volunteering their opinions and experience for free. In the end, the value of the domain is what it actually sells for, not what others think its worth.
Why should anyone take time and justify why they believe the rest of your domains are $0 to reg fee if you're going to state they're worth more because you've seen them sell for more? Different circumstances dictate. As such, someone could have just been a damn good salesman. However, because of that
one metric, it doesn't make your domains any better.
If you want, just use automated appraisals. They may give you better results than real people.
Otherwise, take an appraisal as is.
If you sign up to be a business member, I believe you can get appraisals from Eric from a reseller, hobbyist and end user perspective if you feel the free ones you got don't match your expectations.
In summary, if someone wants to post "$0" or "reg fee" only, that is their prerogative and they shouldn't have to justify why. However, if someone wants to be nice and spend time giving you a free appraisal by breaking it down with searches, similar sales, etc., then you should thank them.
In all actuality, you should thank both people as they took time to view your thread and give you what you asked for: a free appraisal. Otherwise, people may stop giving you appraisals and advice in the future all together.
