Now for the downside - It's actually become quite a common approach (last year or two) for Chancers to use the "Client-interest" angle as an opener (and nothing more - than for obtaining a domain for self) - so now drill down the source email address - don't be afraid to ask or question the source. (of the email) The chancers will soon be gone
I've never felt that a price should be adjusted depending on who is buying it.
It doesn't make any sense to me.
You should have the following in mind even before entering negotiations:
- A price you feel the domain is worth (to you)
- What you would be happy to sell the domain name for
Nothing else matters.
Anything else is just greed (in my opinion)
That is so true, last year i had a few enquiries like that just to find out they don't have a client
Its getting more common as ' I am a student '
When I say it depends on the domain name. What I mean is if you have
bestpricedhousesinthenortheast.co.uk and someone enquired, your response would not be the same as an enquiry for say property.co.uk
So one response does not cover all domains.
Whether you are buying land, a house, a car, clothes, food, etc, it doesn't cost more (or less) depending on where you buy it from or who you are. At least it doesn't where I come from.
House prices are more expensive in london than they are in scotland, Also the same BMW model will be a different price depending on its gizmos etc so i dont think you can class domains in the same way (JMHO).
I think if the person who wants to buy your/a domain and wants to hide behind an agency they are also hiding something.
What you're saying is comparative to buying completely different domain names and/or extensions..?
If I want a car and I meet the price suggested in the car window, I get it for that price. That is a set price the seller expects to receive.
You are the seller. you have an idea of the price you want for the domain. who meets that price requirement makes no difference, surely?
