Online Appraisal Service Purchases Eppraisals.com Domain

WhatsItWorthToYou.com said it purchased the domain name Eppraisals.com. Auctioneer and television personality Leslie Hindman created Eppraisals in 1999 and raised millions of dollars in venture capital. In March 2001, eBay chose Eppraisals as its exclusive online-appraisal service. Just 3 months later, Eppraisals called it quits, a victim of the dot-com implosion.

WhatsItWorthToYou.com launched in June 2001 by Canadian Erik Kafrissen, who said the recent purchase of the Eppraisals.com domain name has already driven traffic to his site.

WhatsItWorthToYou.com offers a network of experts giving their opinions regarding the value of art, antiques and collectibles for $9.95. The company has entered into strategic partnerships with TIAS.com, GoAntiques.com, eBay.ca and Gunbroker.com. http://www.whatsitworthtoyou.com
