Being hopeful, I told him I would pay for half of the apprasial if he pays half, he said okay so I went through with it even though I knew better (but I was gonna get my money back from paypal). So they appraise my domain and say its worth $20k *yeah right, more like $100* I send the guy the appraisal and he says he was no longer interested.

Then, GUESS WHAT, 2 days later I hear from godaddy that I'm being accused of selling the domain to the guy and scamming HIM (he got my info from the appraisal form & used our emails as 'evidence')! He was trying to take my domain from me! I had to go through a lot of crap to prove he was a lier! Thankfully, they believed me. I also got my appraisal money back from paypal! So warning- dont deal with alldomains


Yeah there are plenty of those "appraisal" scams on the internet.

If you need a decent appraisal on a domain just send me a PM; I'm fairly knowledgable in most subjects.
