    FP - (question) site not verified by seller

    I've noticed that lots of listed sites for sale on DP show as "WARNING: Ownership of this domain has NOT been verified by the seller."

    Does anyone here buy sites even with that warning?

    And is there a way around that?

    And... other than being a scammer, why would anyone not verify?

    I buy sites that haven't been verified - as long as the seller sounds legit and shows traffic/revenue stats from the domain it's usually okay. I'll also make sure I get the domain and then pay (especially if they don't have an established account).

    I'd imagine people don't verify because they are lazy

    DP don't require a seller to verify the ownership, so that's probably part of the reason. It would probably make DP a safer marketplace if they did, but I guess they would rather have quantity over quality of listings.
