I'd walk away and get a .com that is closely related. If your name is a .net you're always going to have to remind people it's a .net in your logo and so forth like Authorize.net. If your product is an app I'd get a .co or append "app" to the .com

Now days .com's aren't as important as they once were.

Read how Marco Arment decided naming his app and his dealing with a squatter. ( http://www.marco.org/2013/09/24/naming-overcast )

Also a recent thread about how a YC Co. acquired Experiment.com https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7265540

Good Luck

You are right. It is the business or execution side of the business that matters. I got another domain very close to what I wanted with 3 extra letter(suffix) for few hundred dollars from a squatter.

54k for the domain is still higher(unless you have some angel money to throw at it). I'd use that money to bootstrap my project.
