I listed an app on and they recommended me to list it at $50k at a 5x profit multiple / 3.9x revenue multiple. Is that a reasonable listing price or nah?

@gc_psk I'm not European, but I think it's a reasonable request to ask you to delete all personal data you have on them (regardless of GDPR). Is it hard for you to do so?
