Yup. If a potential buyer ever asks for an appraisal, you can direct him/her to sites like Afternic or Sedo so they can purchase their own appraisal. NEVER buy an appraisal to satisfy a bidder.
Besides, you will get a better appraisal here or on a specialized domain forum. Sometimes a domain will have some or most of its value from the traffic it generates (backlinks, typeins, etc.). So make sure you include that info when describing it.
If you want to see what name is worth in today's marketplace you can also list it for sale (ebay, sedo, afternic) and see who bites and for what price. If you don't want to let it go too low, you can always set a Reserve price.
