Hi
I sent two LLL.com domains which I was brokering to Shane Bellone in response to his thread in Domains Wanted.
He replied to me first about dropping the price.
I asked how much is his client's highest offer . To which he said how many months finance would be agreeable.
I told him owners won't agree to financing options.
He then asked me why I messaged him in the first place as his requirement was related to financing the domain and he will contact the owners now to see if they will agree.
I apologized to him for missing the financing part and asked when did it become a good business practice to bypass brokers and contact the owners directly.
His reply was " My business is to get the best price for myself and my clients. Bypassing a broker who may or may not have an exclusive contract makes sense. Saves them a commission which therefore saves me or my client money."
I am attaching the link to the screenshot as well.

I think it's totally unethical to bypass a broker . What are your thoughts on this?
