It doesn't matter how much you spent to develop it. All that matters is how much it's worth. So if the highest offer you can get is $1,000, then offer to buy it

It doesn't matter how much you spent to develop it. All that matters is how much it's worth. So if the highest offer you can get is $1,000, then offer to buy it for more ($1500).
If you can't afford to buy the assets yourself maybe you can find a new investor to buy the assets on your behalf.
Otherwise: yes, you should just move on.
- tptacek 16y agoWhat staunch said. If you can't afford $1500 to buy your code back, you're not serious enough to be arguing with your VC's anyways. I'm embarrased that I wrote 100 words up there and didn't just say this myself.
- jerf 16y agoOr heck, offer to buy it for a little less, since I imagine selling it to a member of the company would be less complicated and you can extract that in the price. (Though perhaps I'm wrong and it's easier to sell out of the company?)
