If you have a length of wood you can always saw more off, sawing length back on again is non-trivial.
There is potential to negotiate further, if two parties want to come to an agreement there is always room for more discussion.
Right now, the onus is on t'other chap to respond, I'm not going to a) send him an out of sequence message without good reason and b) dropping my metaphorical trousers is not a good reason as c) it reeks of desperation.

@BQ - didn't you say you were getting an out-of-spec reading from both cam sensors? If so, you (potentially) did extremely well to get that much for the car. One reason for both cam sensors to be giving errors is that the IMS bearing (which supports the intermediate main shaft which links the cams together) is more swarf than support, and is about to perform a creditable grenade impersonation.
