It's pretty weird that you (16 years old) are asking $3000 - $4000 from a kid. However, I know how annoying these people can be and they really don't take no for an answer.
I once blocked someone similar and he just kept e-mailing me while he knew I blocked him from MSN.

And I really don't think this guy now understands how much time design/development takes after you showed him some websites of companies.

Is it really necessary to insult Scott's work?
If he wanted criticism on his work he'd post it in the gallery forum, but he didn't.

No, I probably can't do 4,000x better.

I'm also not insulting his work, but its a clan template! No one charges in excess of like, 200 dollars for one of those, and your asking 3,000?

Sorry, but good luck ever doing a clan site for 3k.

I don't mean to be an arse here, but... It seems as if you were trying to impress him with the big numbers. As if you were making that much from other clients.

If I came to you tomorrow, and asked for a quote on a clan site, would you quote me $4000?

He's not actually asing for 3 grand. It's just a demonstration, and he was trying to convince his friend that web design doesn't come cheap. That's all.
