[mr-x]

"This is a very reasonable offer for a site that is just parked.."

I like the ellipse, like they're just trolling...

 

[alcy]

[Lite]

Counter with $1K

 

[RU]

I think I know who made the offer. They sell used cars.

A $100 offer on a domain you want $588 is not that bad.
Definitely not "the worst offer ever"

When Sedo takes like $90 of the $100 it's a horrible sale.

Was referring to the comment.

Yeah worst offer ever is normally something like "not more than reg fee"

I never use Sedo so I am not aware of these high fees. I can easily imagine other people not being aware of that too.

The have a minimum xx commission. I've read about people here getting like 10-20 out of a 1xx sale.

Wow. Never used them and probably never will !

I sell 8 to 10 domains a year at SEDO. Some of the brokers are very good and will follow up on failed negotiations, etc.

Considering they handle escrow and hold the buyer's hand until the domain is transferred, it's not a bad deal.

Can you tell how you list your domains at sedo? normal parking or SEDO MLS or anything else?

" site that is just parked" is a rather common attempt to lower the price when talking to buyers through emails. They dont always use the term "parked" though. Was expecting something worse

It could be a $100 domain

Care to elaborate?

The offer. If I walked into their dealership and offered $100 for a car b/c it's just sitting there.. parked.

Offer was from a new account so I think they are an end user, probably a used car dealer.

They take $60+taxes minimum.

 

[campout]

If they know the term "parked" it sounds like it's another domainer.

 

[korganian]

$100 is your worst offer ever? Wow. I've had hundreds of offers lower that that. My worst offer is people wanting me to give the domain to them for nothing. And I've had several of those!
