That's an old scam trick. Someone emails you saying they want your domain, but want YOU to buy an appraisal.

Trust me, if someone is willing to pay 75K for a domain, they dont need you to buy an appraisal. Write the person back and tell them that if he needs an appraisal, he is free to acquire one himself.

There's a 99.99999% chance you will never hear from the person again.

Edit: if you still believe the inquiry is legit, then tell them that you will reduce the sales price by $500, but they still must pay the $250 appraisal fee.
