Agreed. Set price and move the product. At least take pictures of what was agreed on. I learned that lesson early when I bought a pile of car parts. Made a down payment and took a two weeks getting everything moved out. Half way into it, went to pay the rest. Owner claimed we'd agreed on more although he didn't specify what amount. Then piles started shrinking. Fortunately, I'd taken pictures of what I'd bought. Probably the only really bad experience I've had over the years.
