This was going to be my next suggestion. The original owner of the domain does not need to know exactly who you are / represent to make contact and try to negotiate. That will also help you to feel the person out to see what their frame of mind is.
Unfortunatly this world is full of people that hold out hope some huge multinational corp is going to want their domain and throw millions at them, but for every one of these there are probably five that have come to grips with reality that this day is never going to come.
Probably the hardest ones to deal with are the Billy Dreamers that haven't taken the time to construct a real business plan but are going to build something awesome someday. They won't sell to you because their dream is going to be the next big thing or because they have "artistic integrity". It kills me some of these guys who hold out and still have parked pages years later
