Hello,
What is the price you can accept for your domain?
Domain names is not main direction of our company. Just additional way to make money online on domain reselling. Our company develops software in databases in Visual C++ and MS SQL Server. We work as contractors of a big corporation.
If you offer more domains for sale with good reselling potential please email us your list.
Looking forward to do business with you.

i emailed him back to check the auction link and this is what he sent me

I checked your auction link.
1,300 USD. Ok.
Do you sell the name only without web site? I'm interested in the name so web site is not so important.
Do you have an appraisal certificate for your domain name?
Domain name is an investment for me. In other words I'm going to sell your name later and make a profit. If I overpay I won't be able to make a profit in the future. It's very important for you and me to know the current market value of your domain.
Of course, we must be sure that you are engaging a reputable appraisal company. I heard many appraisal companies often made inaccurate appraisals. I will only accept appraisals from independent sources I trust.
To avoid mistakes I asked domain experts about reputable appraisal companies in a forum

Just check this posting.
If the appraisal comes higher you can adjust your asking price accordingly. I also hope you can give me 10% - 15% discount of the appraised value.
After I get an appraisal from you we'll continue our negotiations.
How do you prefer to get paid: www.escrow.com, www.PayPal.com check or wire?
Hope we can come to an agreement fast.
Looking forward to your reply.
