Man, imagine if you had asked for a thousand euros as consideration.

So, you would spend several thousands of dollars to register a trademark to protect it from other corporations, and then the first thing you would do is give out the right to said corporation for 1000 bucks? I'm not an expert, but that sounds like a bad deal to me and substantially weakens the mark.
I'm clueless, how much did it cost to get the trademark registered?

Well, the alternative (in hindsight, admittedly) is losing it entirely?
You are telling us straight into our faces that you only valued the trademark for its ability to earn money from lawsuits.
Not just that, you will also have to solve the mystery of how a one time payment is supposed to strengthen your trademark in the long run.
