Considering buying an ecommerce site. Where would you value this?

OP Update:
I called the seller in response to his email saying that he had received an offer, and I should submit asap if I was interested. I called him and offered $800, he replied that he had received an offer of $3,100 from another party. I told him that IMHO that was a great offer and to hang up on me NOW and call the other party to accept!!!

It'll be interesting to watch trendyglasses dot net and see if it changes.

Great response, and good luck with the next potential purchase, if this seller doesn't come back to you hat in hand.

The one thing I know for sure is, in about 3 seconds there will be another similar site, maybe even a better site, come up for sale. I liken website buying to auctions, never get personally involved (until you have bought the site) because whatever you are trying to buy another one very similar if not better will be available soon at an even better price.
