Maybe people are assuming it's $10,000 net after the cost of lawyers and "admin" or whatever it takes to sell your thing on Acquire. $10,000 is a lot of money, if I had some hobby project that was break even and I was getting sick of dealing with it, I'd even sell it for $1,000, let alone $10,000 which can be life changing!

Even if it meant you can't work on something similar to that hobby project again?

Probably. OP said he can't get excited about the project, and hates the situation, so sure. For a few grand in the pocket, no big deal. Is this really a standard term for selling a failed business? You can't work on something similar ever again for the rest of your life?
