I recently used this one which I like. It was used on me years ago when I countered at 10x the offer! and never heard from them again.
Thanks, ------------. We are a bit far apart in price to negotiate at this time. If anything changes on your end, please feel free to reach out.

Depends on what kind of buyer it is IMO. Brand/business? Tell them the price directly (or leave room for negotiation) in the reply. If individuals, Tell them range of your expectations. Be nice!
Hi, Maple
A clear value frame often turns lowball chatter into real negotiation.

Hmm, something doesn't sound right. Do people really hire brokers with only a couple of thousand as their budget? Sounds more like a line a client himself would say to the seller to emotionally distant himself/herself as a tactic.
That is indeed a really great response.

Here's what I say:
(Intro specific to individual domain/case)... but if your situation changes and you have a higher offer, feel free to inquire again.
And just the other day, I get this response:
Great. You can reach out if you accept my offer too.

You would be surprised how many times my brokerage has been approached by would-be clients with budgets of $500. We politely turn them away along with a few tips. We do sometimes take on very low budget projects (e.g., under $5k budget) but only for not-for-profits or really special clients we want to do a favour for, and of course we also need to believe the client has a chance of getting the target domain for that amount. 90% of the clients that approach us don't have a realistic budget, so we have to educate them a lot about what would actually be a viable budget.
When I am fielding inbound offers on behalf of clients who own domains, and the offers are lowball, I typically reply with something along the lines of:
Thank you for your offer, which my client politely declines.
My client welcomes serious offers for this [one-word .com domain / brandable two-word .com domain], offers that are in sync with current market values for comparable domains, and by serious I mean offers that are at least [five-figures / six-figures].

I find this separates the men from the boys, and if the buyer is serious, they will continue to engage. And if not, they were not the ideal buyer.

That’s also possible, not a broker, but the client itself.
