I made an Android app with a small user/fan base that I published for free after Admob went wonky in the Google acquisition, but I might want to sell to someone who wants to add ads or port to iPhone since I am too busy to maintain it. Flippa gets good reviews here, but all the sites listed on its front page look like junk and Spam, nothing even as worthwhile as little ThemeSquirrel

Repost of a comment I made elsewhere about Flippa: Yeah, 95% of Flippa is garbage. A few gems pop up from time to time, but there is so much noise it is hard to find them. For a while I really wanted to purchase an app, renovate it by fixing sales funnels/marketing/bugs and start building a portfolio of semi-passive income. I ended up with a strict set of filter options. Must be X months old, with Y monthly unique making Z revenue. That filtered out a lot of the garbage. I had Flippa email me once a week with these sites/apps, which I then glanced through manually. Most of them were still crap, or way overpriced (like 20 months net-profit). I really wish there was an "Abandoned App" equivalent to Flippa. A place where programmers could sell off their side projects and abandoned web-apps. I wouldn't allow any adsense sites or anything that wasn't a real "web app"
