I was surprised by your fast response. I really appreciate it

Can you accept 7,000 USD?

I have a 30,000 USD budget for 5-7 domain names. Have you had your domain names evaluated in the past? Without a valuation certificate we cannot be sure in the sale price. Moreover, my accountant and tax services always ask for valaution certificates . On the other side, it's very important for me in terms of reselling too. Of course, we must engage a valuation company with a REAL manual service. So I will only accept valuations from independent sources I and my accountant trust.

To avoid mistakes I asked domain experts about reputable appraisal companies. Please check this blog with suggestions from other sellers and buyers:

If, for example, the valuation comes higher you can adjust your asking price accordingly. It will be fair. I also hope you can give me 12% - 15% discount.






After you send me the valuation via email (usually it takes 1-2 days to obtain it) we'll continue our negotiations.

What is your preferred payment method: Escrow.com, International wire transfer, PayPal.com or something else?

Hope we can come to an agreement fast.

Looking forward to your reply.

They tell you you have to get your domain appraised (evaluated) so they can buy it at the said price. They will give you affiliate link to domain appraisal service.

What you should do is to tell them to appraise it at godaddy on their own (ie: they pay the fees) and they should consider that as expenses of their business (they say they have a company that sells and buys domains huh?)

PS: Godaddy appraisal gives a public page on their site that can be seen and verified by buyer and seller Sedo.com is another good service but they offer appraisal in a PDF to your email.

If they reply with legit reply then they prove that they are a serious buyer or else a scam...
