#7"We started the conversation by offering a fair price to show we were serious. We didn’t want to get ignored by starting with a low, insulting offer. After a few emails negotiating a price, we struck a deal for $20k. No equity, just cash exchanged with escrow.com."
This is my business (since '96). You did a great job and bought the name for a very fair price.
If you would post the contents of the emails you sent I would be glad to give some further opinions that might be helpful to others in the same situation. As far as what someone in this business thinks when they receive emails from buyers (I have received thousands so there is no pattern I haven't seen yet.)
