OneHungLo's advice is actually pretty good... best to work things out before laywers get involved... once they get involved, both parties will get fucked hard...
Exactly. It's going to cost them (I think it's around $1500) for the WIPO case so if you list it at $1200, and they want it bad enough, it makes sense.
