Hi,

Did I miss something? You said $250 per month, they came back with $400 per month and you executed the lease? :(

If you don't know what it costs, then it means you aren't experienced enough
to understand why they don't just give you a cost upfront, or two young a
company to be financial secure to do business with, and if you are worried
about it, then you probably don;t have the budget to pay for it, in their
mind.  What ends up happening is its the sales guy, who writes you off, not
necessarilly the tower company. Sometimes they won't call you back for
MONTHS, until he has nothing else to do that day!
The way to get around that, is to start out with the first relationship
paying significantly, so you can establish a relationship with someone. Once
you have their ear, and made a commitment, you can start negotiating.  You
should start out by asking someone else in the industry what they are paying
for the space, and going in, with that understanding working with them.

I can't even get a ballpark price on some of their towers. I would like to
know if I am wasting my time (and theirs). I have 3 towers in mind I would
like to get on of theirs.
