hi dpers i am offered for 9000USD for my domain stickyfur.com domain is 6 year old .. the guy is asking me to get it appraised from independent body just want to know how much is it real worth of i tried dp appraisal section but no one is responding there to my thread so thought to bring it in open community please help
I think you're in the wrong thread... But why would he ask you to get it appraised if he already made the offer?
i saw my site at some auctions ....and contacted me via email...and ask me price for it.. i counter queried him how much he could pay for it... so he replied this...he says get it appraised ..may be after appraisal cost is more then what he have offered...and do get it appraised from and independent third party..he didnt mention his but did mention some that he wont prefer like afternic and one two more.. then i replied him what domain appraisal company he trusts he says he have good reviews about easynamesale.com so can anyone kindly help me to find out my domain appraisal cost whether to spend on appraisal or not?if its not that worth
it is a scum! tell him to pay for the appraisal first and you are willing to subtract the appraisal from the cost of domain if he really want to buy it most likely you will never hear from him again
thanks thats what i am thinking... i havnt spend anything on appraisal yet..but i have heard scammers ask you to appraise from specific company he is aksing for third independent party lets see i will follow your method
the guy tell himself from the next generation (TNG) i used this tool to check worth its showing highworth of my domain also dp appraisal section do give some domain value tp my domain.. let see what he responds
can you list some symptoms of scamming? and if domain isnt worth of whats the point in scamming... just getting appraisal cost..lol...well that too is quite high
Exactly, (I woudl think) he owns or works for or has some connection with the appraisal site. He makes an offer you 'can't refuse' and then asks for an appraisal. You pay for the appraisal (this is where they make the money) and then low and behold, the sale falls through because of the appraisal, leaving you out of pocket to the tune of the value of the appraisal and he in profit to the value of the appraisal. Now, multiply this by xxxx's of domains and its not a bad little earner for them.
currently i didnt got any reply from him ...after last message...and you may be right its yesterday only when i placed my domain in namepros and yesterday only i got mail...may be those kind of people originate from there only.... thats why i put up a talk here ...lets see whether he reply or not or what he replies..
lol u will spent 100$ for appraisal and that guy wont reply after that appraisal a scam to get little money via appraisals scheme
i havent spend a dime yet...when i have dp for such thing why do i go for anything before reviewing and sharing it with others here thanks guys...hope it isnt scam... but i think it is
after appraisal ( 60 to 100 $) they wont reply they are little scammers so no question of paypal payments
