One of my roles is to appraise domains. The service is free to all UK domain owners and has no malice or underhand intentions. Domainers might find the valuations lower that they had hoped, but that is merely our opinion based on selling many thousands of pounds worth of domains to UK businesses face to face. The value of a domain is the monetary value (or profit) it can give a commercial organisation, not simply in the domain being short or catchy. My Name is Helen Taylor, I work for Whythink.

I thought they were genuine based on the appraisals they gave me. In the email they sent me the last line was "Please let me know if you need any more help. Regards". So they obviously didn't want to buy mine! You are right they must undervalue them with an aim to buy them from you. Im not sure if it can be classed as a scam, just bad practice in my opinion. And the scraping they seem to be doing is another bad practice! H Scott, it was me who started the thread on acorn. I thought they were genuine based on the appraisals they gave me.
