As the owner of an art gallery with a keen eye for upcoming talent, you find a painting that you feel is sure to net a large profit from a relatively unknown artist. You contact the artist and negotiate to privately purchase the piece for $5,000, which you believe will be worth at least $25,000 in the next five years. A contract is signed to purchase the painting which is to be delivered to your gallery. Excited about the sale and with some extra time on his hands, the artist decides to do a search on you. Realizing that you are the successful owner of an art gallery, the artists feels that perhaps he sold the painting for too low of a price and returns the $5,000 check to you instead of delivering the painting. How should you proceed

I would rather sign a contract with talent for a relatively short period say 5 months where I would pay $5000 per month or I would increase the amount paid for the painting to $10000 or $15000

Explanation:

A huge momentarily reward can blind long term gain and during this period.
