Yes, I completely agree with you and keeping his likely end-user selling price in mind, I had set my asking price in order to make it attractive for him to consider. Having said that, at the end of the day the thing that matters most is what was my ROI.

Exactly

Everyone has different situations etc eg how long a person can or wants to hold on to a domain and sometimes that kind of money is better in your pocket than someone else's eg it can pay for renewals or reinvested in more domains etc than holding out for a better offer which could take time although with the domain you sold you'd have a queue of offers in time

Some people are better at marketing high end than others.
Some people, like MM, have a staff to work sales.
Some people have spent the time networking with end users in order to make those sales possible.

We all want that big sale, but they do not usually just drop in our lot. How many of us would see a $10,000 value in a name we pick up for $100 and have the guts to turn down the $2,500 or $5,000 offer for it? Some would, but most of us would not.

Think of a cabinet maker. He sells his cabinets to a retailer for $500 and the retailer sells it for $800. In theory, the cabinet maker could hold out for an end user to buy it from him at $800, but he does not have the infrastructure to wait for that to happen. Instead he sells it for $500 and puts the money back into doing what he does best; creating a new cabinet to sell to another retailer.

No different than the domain industry. We all have our capitalistic role to play. Sometimes the big ones come in but usually it is best for us to sell the cabinet to the retailer and move on to doing what we do best: finding the names, finding the small and medium sized end user, or selling the the ones with the infrastructure to find and close the the big market end users.

For me, @Sumit Agrawal, you made a great call.

Great sale there. But what do you mean by package deal? Do the inbounds come for the three names at the same time or it came for one and you pitched the other two?

This does indeed sum up the domain business for a lot of us!
