This was the response that pushed him over the edge.
So ppl, unless you absolutely are sure that you are going to hire him, don't respond to his correspondences. You'll never know where your conversations might end up, if you don't .

Hello,
I am in the process of putting out a tender on the various coding sites.
However I know very little about web design and so do not know the very basic information I need to put in the tender/job spec such as skills required and budget.
The website I have in mind is very similar to hatched.co.uk.
1) Who do I need to hire to develop the site? What skills/qualifications do they need?
2) How many hours will it take to complete the project? (this will help me in budgeting)
3) If I was to make this a fixed fee project, what should I set the fee at?
4) Should the site be 100% custom or should/can templates be used in some parts?
5) are there any other important questions I should be asking?
As you can see I am a real noob at this but that's why I'm here.
Any help will be much appreciated. thanks.
