Hi Harold, I think your above statement says it all.
I'm sure that very few people here knew/know what an accumulator is/does and that even fewer here own/sell accumulators. So the appraisals you are getting here may be accurate, but if not, are likely to be wrong on the low side.
Two things are fairly certain:
1. Your not likely to find a buyer for that name here, at a forum where the membership is made up of, "non-accumulator owning", speculators. Nor are these speculators likely to have clients wanting this name. If you did find a buyer here, it would be for not much more than the values the name has been assigned so far in the thread.
2. If
#1 is true, then unless you find, an accumulator/hydraulic company, that has a U.S. presence and is shoping for a domain name, then the appraisals you have recieved here are accutate.
If you did find an end user that fits all of
#2's criteria, then the value of name is still unknown, but likely to be much higher than the appraised values you have recieved here.
So in my opinion, the question that should be asked when dealing with a niche or extremely market specific name is,
"What are my chances of finding a qualified end user to purchase this name" rather than asking for a straight appraisal of that name.
Submitting this name to the U.S. National Hydraulic Manufacturers Association's news letter as a "for sale" item as well as other pertinent organisations would give you a better idea of the name's "demand" as well as it's "value".
Cheers
