here is so much people, who spent fortunes on buying domains, and then have been disapointed, because that domains was worthless. what i am trying to say, it would be so nice to have some appraisals section on this forum, where people could ask them, if this domain is worth to register or not, and whould it have trademark issue or not, and be sure, that appraisal will not tell you that it is worthless, and run and register it. Is this possible to create some kind of may be private appraisal consultation place, where people can pay some solid NPs upfront and would not be disapointed later?

I think the concept is a good one, but it has some flaws. First off, different people have different opinions about domains. For example, something like Google.com without the site, just the domain, I may say the domain is worthless, and not worth registering. Someone with an idea for the domain may say its worth $500. Its a matter of your perspective. Also, TM issues are hard to always say, because it often depends on a lot of different factors. The people doing the appraisals would have to be paid a lot, because they are spending their time appraising these domains, when they could be off researching their own domains, and deciding if it is worth registering or not. Last, I don't really think a simple yes or no answer is possible for a lot of domains. For example, some domains are very risky, with huge potential, but no immediate value. This may not be a good domain for someone to buy if it is there first one, but may be an option for someone with 50, or a 100, or a 1000 for that matter. I think the idea is good, but in reality there is too many flaws to even try to implement it.

I think it's simple for someone to research a name and give a fair valuation of a DN.Unfortuantly this doesn't happen the majority of the time.The essentials to valuating a DN only take minutes.Giving an opinion on someones DN without doing so Makes the valuation null and worthless,When i give a valuation of a name i research,I don't just look at the name and like or dislike it and then put down a valuation appraisel.I don't think there is a real solution to this.I think the appraisel forum is a necessary here at namepros.The staff have a system setup to where qualified apprasier can earn NP$ on giving appraisels provided they meet the namepros staff criteria.For those that don't meet the staffs criteria,The are not earning NP$ for giving thier valuation.So in a nutshell,I think the appraisel forum is nice part of namepros,It is very common to see a reg fee appraisel on many DNs and no explanation,Development,End User and ect-ect.The best thing to do is overlook those valuations as they are usless and find a valuation of your DN with some research explanations.
