    Just saying what I would do in this spot. They are WAY over-shooting their asking price. They are hoping that you would bite on a number. They know it's too high. if they have $30k wrapped up, they just more than likely want half out of it, shooting out 18k and hoping you would think you were getting a deal by negotiating down to 15. even at 15 you are getting smoked. the servers have value, but they depreciate like a korean car in a north dakota winter. Make an offer that you are comfortable with, not just breaking even, if you think you can turn it over to 10, offer 5 or 6. They will more than likely act like you insulted them, you will walk out. and they will keep trying to find a sucker. either they will, or they wont. Just dont let it be you. if they dont find one, 2-3 weeks from now, your phone might ring. Thats when your offer should go down another 10-20%. because you know they are just trying to dump at that point.
