Management is requesting more time to formulate an offer. Thank you for your patience
21/05/2021, 20:43:10
How long do you need? You wanted to agree quickly, but you yourself are delaying the negotiations.
21/05/2021, 20:51:38
After many discussions with management, they have settled at $150K for the amount. This is based on the valuation of the information provided and other risk factors in the environment. Management hopes to settle quickly, can we agree
22/05/2021, 15:08:38
Your offer has been rejected. Make a more reasonable offer based on our offer.
22/05/2021, 15:49:04
150.000 and 1.500.000 why do you think we should agree to 1\10? Your proposal is not even close to what you can talk about and think about.
22/05/2021, 15:51:00
We are willing to negotiate to a fair settlement. What number can you offer?
22/05/2021, 22:29:40
Well, we see constructive dialogue and make a discount. Your new price is $1.350.000

Based on the valuation of the data, we are at $200K. We hope you will be able to accept your offer
26/05/2021, 17:49:21
Well, we see constructive dialogue and make a discount. Your new price is $900.000. Your next step.
27/05/2021, 17:02:06
Evaluate our steps. You can negotiate with us. But offering funny amounts is not the best way for you. It leads to publication.
27/05/2021, 17:03:22
