If the broker gets 10-15% how are your interests aligned? They couldn't possibly be motivated to get you the best deal on the domain.
(I've been doing this since 1996...)
- robertlaing 14y agoAs I recall we did something like... if price < x, commission = y% price > x, commission = y-5% Regardless, hard to have a perfect transaction in this kind of thing from a buyer's point of view because by default you have imperfect information. Such is life.
- larrys 14y agoThat's good. I've done something similar. Base rate plus anything under "x" I get a percentage of the "savings". But for me it's less of an issue as I do this mainly for fun. I did it for free in the beginning but it ended up taking to much time so I started to charge to slow things down. I just had a deal where I bought a domain for $3000 less after my buyer already had agreed to the sellers price and the deal was done. I smelled blood in the water so I got the seller (w/o the buyers knowledge) to lower the price more just for the fun of it. In general I will see what the budget is for the purchase and if not reasonable won't take the assignment at all.
