Default Chopping, do you? Would you?

I know people who say they never chop under any circumstance, other say it's a good idea and still more say it depends. Well here is the spot I was in today and you tell me what you would have done and if there are any guidelines.

1500 FPP Single table SNG to the $215 and at three handed one guy suggests a chop, before I even thought about it the other player said no, so my vote was not needed. I got to heads up againts the player who did not want to chop earlier and after thinking about it I thought it might not be a bad idea so I asked him as well and he again said no, but if we got to even stack that he would want too.

I replied OK, GL and figured we would play it out.

Stacks were roughly 7600 for him and 5900 for me and he was super aggressive which meant I had to get a hand or luck would decide this thing and since it was a satellite I would have got nothing for second.

After both stealing the blinds twice in the next four hands he asked if I wanted T$ or cash as he wanted the T$ (this doesn't make sense to me as cash is AT LEAST as valuable at T$) but he offered me a split of 125/90 and he would send me the 90 in cash while we were at the table.

I took that offer and he sent me the money right away.

Good move, bad move, or other?
