I bought it around January of 2011, when I knew I was going to move forward with the concept. It seems kind of tacky to share the amount, but it cost about 5-10x less than what most people guess, as the previous owner was extremely reasonable.

What a silly response. It's not a tacky question, and you just don't want to say for understandably selfish reasons. The rest of the world would still like the data point.

  No one has an obligation to tell you about their private financial transactions because you want a "data point."

    Obviously there's no obligation. It was just a smug move to decline to share the price.

Amazing effort, @gmf & team. Super impressed & for years i have cribbed there is not a good way to save, with context, really AWESOME & insightful HN comments, for future perusal, archiving & searching. IMHO, it does not seem tacky at all to share the amount, especially as a fellow hn reader explicitly asked to know it. Obviously, you have every right, no to disclose it, for whatever reason.
