Capped by Sedo's £10K appraisal limit system?

Possibly. A limit I wasn't aware of years ago when I was bidding for a domain that eventually went for an achievable £18k :(

When I last used Sedo (years ago) you could pay them to appraise the domain.

If they deemed it worthy of more (US$/EUR/GBP 10,000+), you could price it accordingly.

A measure to stop crap being listed for millions plus another revenue stream for them.
 
It was my domain.

Discussions with the buyer took an elapsed 6 months (approx) from their initial, much lower offer earlier this year. I'd no clue who the buyer was; turns out the domain is an obvious fit for their company.

Whole process has taught me to be patient. It took about a year from my first speculative enquiry to actually acquire the name from previous registrant. They weren't interested in selling it; I enquired again months later but we couldn't agree on a price, then they came back to me. Thanks to Frank too for his second opinion just before I bought it.

So it's taken me a year and a bit to sell it.

You're welcome John - I have been itching to post that it was an Acorn member who made the sale, but it wasn't my place to say it. Excellent sale all round :)
 
Substantially higher. I feel £10k was a very good purchase price for the buyer. :)

(from LG G3)

Could look at it that he has 10k to play around with now

Maybe he could of waited another few years to get 20k, but in the meantime he could turn that 10k into much more.
 
I'm certainly not trying to look at it from the sellers perspective because the decision to sell for an amount is entirely a personal one. Introducing that into the thread strays from my point that I feel that this domain name is worth substantially more than £10k. :) (from iPad - K)

For once, I agree with invincible. It's a nice amount to have before Xmas but the price is more of a trade price than an end user price.

It's one of the best domains in the .uk space IMO.
 
I would have thought 10k is quite high for a domain like this, good as a brand though.
