That was painfully well written and you bring up very valid points, so thank you.
Your facts would lead an economist to conclude that, theoretically, anyone selling through Flippa is sacrificing some value they have created in exchange for less friction in the disposition process.
I've always liked the real estate simile for websites. A domain name is like an undeveloped parcel of land and the software running the website is the structure built on it. Perhaps there is room for a more commercially focused class of service providers for transactions in this area? But it looks like you are already helping to fill this void.
As the complexity of the transaction increases, it would more closely resemble a traditional business acquisition like you describe above; however, with barriers to entry falling I think there is room for the Flippa's of the world.
