Nick,
We have recently been contacted by a potential buyer. He is insisting that we pay for a third-party domain appraisal and that this appraisal be "manual" and not "automated".
It鈥檚 my opinion that a domain or any 鈥減roperty鈥?is only worth what a buyer is willing to pay for it and nothing more. Not what an appraiser or an mathematical equation says its worth.

鈥?What reputable, manual domain appraisal services do you recommend? How about Godaddy Certified Domain Appraisal (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/dna/appraisal.asp?se=%2B&ci=4370">https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/dna/appr ... 2B&ci=4370</a><!-- m -->)?
鈥?What does a 鈥æ·Âomplete Domain Package鈥?consist of? .com, .net., org, plurals, misspellings, anything else?
鈥?How much value is added to a domain when you have the 鈥æ·Âomplete Domain Package鈥? 10%, 50%, 100% or more?
