Does anyone have any experience selling wepapps? Something that sits on a database, memcache, solr, etc? I've got a few sites that use various frameworks/technologies that were fun projects that I no longer maintain. I've always thought about selling them, but have always hesitated due to the fear of having to spend time supporting them.
Are buyers generally technical? Could I just say, you get a huge performance boost when you turn on memcache, and they'll know what I mean?
Do they expect me to host the application, or do they want the code/database/domain all transfered over to them? If transfer, do they expect help setting it up?
Flippa has always perked my interest, but every time I look at it I just see a bunch of wordpress blogs that auto generate content. I'd love to hear some stories that involve apps more sophisticated than content blogs.

If you do sell your App, remember that whilst buyers may be technical, they still appreciate clear English. Here's an example of an app listing gone slightly wrong
