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![]()
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.
Congratulations. I feel the domain name is worth substantially more than £10k
Substantially higher. I feel £10k was a very good purchase price for the buyer.![]()

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)
