I'd take the 12 mil if that was a legitimate offer, I've seen much better bows go for alot less than that. 10ssi on a composite bow isn't going to be very fast, it doesn't have mana leech or any hit effect that adds anything to the shots (magic arrow, harm, fireball, lower defense, etc...). Balanced is nice, but with its shot delay time you could use one without balanced and unequip, chug, re-equip without missing a shot.
now if it was a magical shortbow....
