Selling domain names - anyone done it?

So I've got a few domain names that I am looking to offload as I've been paying for them for years and no longer use. One of them it appears could be worth a couple of £Ks in the right hands (it's all speculative I know). But before I go down the path, has anyone had any real world experience of selling domain names or is it a long drawn out faff and not worth the hassle?

If you have an idea of cost then contact the people who would be interested in the name and offer it for sale.

Once you’ve found a buyer and agreed a price it’s a doddle to do the transaction via escrow.com for a small fee.

Yep.

I had one "valued" at £2.5k+. Sat on it for a decade with a clear 'for sale' holding page and regular forays into marketing to a few folk. In the end I sold it and 5 others to Travis Perkins for £300...
