150k for 20% is the exact counter they shoulda made

[@ElderGod29]

Yeap! That would've been a good deal. The sharks were hellbent on the 10%. Would've gotten them another 50k for the 20%>

[@mrbong123]

No. They should of IMMEDIATELY said nope nope nope were not even remotely interested in a 20% deal the exact second those two money hungry pigs started conspiring together. This deal exclusively helps them. They get 3 separate entities pushing this product themselves the other shark and the entrepreneurs and they STILL get their 10% they were willing to take. These guys were soft and didn't have the backbone to refuse any sort of combined shark deal...

[@haralds4145]

​@@ElderGod29kevin was already at 9 they should have asked for 100 for 18% and a lok for 100.000 units

150k was the right counter yeah... too baddd

That was robert mark was out newbabies

[@ammaguy3166]

In the video edit it looks that way, but everyone knows that pitch could have easily lasted 30+mins and we dk what got cut out

[@GeauxRight777]

Mark?

[@harrdeeharr]

@@JamesDombroski-uw1poI think they’re saying if Mark hadn’t started talking, they could have accepted Kevin’s 9% offer before it got modified to include Robert

[@IllusionMamba]

I bet if they had just responded to the "rearview mirror" comment with: "Well we would love to have done the deal at 10% with you Robert, but unfortunately we are going to have to pass on cutting our valuation in half" that he probably would have jumped back in solo.

[@ambermarie8027]

Wow! This is one of the MOST infuriating episodes I've ever seen! These guys have absolutely NO business acumen. They should have countered at 200k for 20% or at the very least 150k 20%. Clearly the sharks were interested enough to value their company more than they did (with Kevin at 9%) so why not use that!? Yikes!

[@BaithovenKEKW]

literally let themself get scammed. If they think doubling the amount of equity for having 2 sharks is fine, just take the publicity and go by

[@bjvu9460]

what publicity? So you are saying the 200 million views they already have isnt enough or wasnt enough! They will sell a few then this will fizzle out since there isnt anything relatively fun about it after the first week

[@privacyplease64]

I don't think the deal closed. I think they took the crappy offer to save face with the intention to not go through with it.

[@anthonyrojas9989]

sharks chopped their risk in half and got the right equity. Those guys played too much and got shafted

[@jomojojo6603]

Barbara: this toy is so much fun. For that reason, I'm out.

[@mikehawk7294]

The perfect counter would have been $175,000 for the 20%. Settle at $150,000

[@harshsinghi1474]

Rather not do a deal in this case

[@buzztrucker]

$25? Considering the price of video games I think that's not expensive. If they could get it 20 or under I think that's the sweet spot.

[@aubreysmith7355]

I was confused because i thought they couldn't offer them less than they ask for but apparently they can if they keep $ amount the same but increase percentage sold. So if person said I want $100,000 for 1% they can't say I'll give you $10,000 for 1% but they can say I'll give you $100,000 for 50% even though that is technically a lower assessment. So in this case the wanted $100,000 for 10% and they offered $100,000 for 20% is ok but if they said they only wanted to sell 10% they can't take $50,000 for 10%. Seems like strange logic but ok.
