illusion - I think you miss the point. The statement of a 16m offer goes to the credibility of the owner of this site. That number is so over the top that without anything to back it up makes it very hard to believe. That is important because Jon says he wants to be a resource for the aff community. If the owner lacks credibility then the site lacks credibility.
For everyone that says something like, well there are people out there paying all kinds of crazy money for shit so this is possible. Do you understand the kind of money it would take to be able to offer 16m and not make a dent in your business or personal life? Very few businesses would be able to do this. If the company that made this supposed offer was a public company the share holders would be up in arms for this persons ouster for financial miss management!
To recoup any of there investment they would have to monitize the site within days or weeks just to stay in business. I don't know why you would try and sell to AFF people online in a traditional sense because we don't buy the same way as most people online, this is probably the toughest demographic to sell too so again the offer just does not make any sense.
if a business offered 16m, usually they would be willing to go up a bit and having sold more than 1 business I have to say negotiation does not happen this way!
