At the market
Vendor : Hello madam, what can I do for you?
Customer: (picking up a beautiful hand-painted plate) this is a quite lovely. Where was it made ?
Vendor : oh, I see you have excellent taste. Yes, that is a beautiful,isn’t it? It’s local pottery. I think it was painted here by a local artist?
Customer: it’s really something...... do you have anything else by this artist? Vendor: Well, I’m not really sure who exactly painted which pieces of pottery, but here are some similar pieces.
Customer: No, they are really not the same.
Vendor: Well, how about these here? I had them brought in just this morning.
Customer: Yes, those are quite nice. What about the prices?
Vendor: Obviously, it depends on what would you like to buy. That plate that you were first lookingat costs $50.
Customer: $50! That’s quite expensive. I can’t afford that.
Vendor: Remember these are hand painted pieces of pottery, that kind of handicraft work doesn’t come cheaply.
Customer: Yes, I understand that. But I really think that $50 is just too much. Vendor : Listen, I can see that you are in love with that plate. Let’s just make it $45. I’d really like you to take that home with you.
Customer: How about $35. I really can’t go any higher than that. Vendor: I really can’t, I mean that would be selling at cost.
Customer: Well, $38 is absolutely the most I can spend.
Vendor: All right. I really shouldn’t the artist is going to have me put out of business for selling his wares at such low prices.
Customer: Come, come. Let’s not exaggerate
Vendor: You’re a clever one, aren’t you?
Customer: I’m just someone who pays close attention to what I spend.
Vendor: There’s no shame in that. Here you are. (hands the plate to the customer)
Customer: thank you very much.
Vendor: Thank you, have a pleasant day.
