What I found is that Moniker.com seems to be the most professional of the domain name companies. They offer appraisal and auctioning services. Their appraisal service does cost money, but you'll get a reliable estimate of how much your domain is currently worth. Keep in mind that the value of a domain name involves: 1) The traffic the domain gets 2) The value of the name to a buyer If the domain is undeveloped, then you're basically looking at how important that particular domain name is to a buyer. This makes it harder to estimate the value. Moniker's auction services allow for a reserve price to be set, so you could be assured you wouldn't get less than that amount for the domain. Good luck with the domain! Having just recently started looking at the business of domain name selling, this is something I was recently researching.
