和老外聊天地道口语：看老外买东西如何讨价还价!
Jane: Thank you! Guess how much it costs.L: bright colors, smooth material, exquisite craftsmanship, soft
lines…Darling, it looks elegant on you! It can't be any cheap stuff. Something
around two hundred, I guess.
J: your offer is way off the mark. It set me back only sixty-five.
L: then you got a windfall! Was sixty-five the original price, or did you
get a special discount.
J: neither. I drove a hard bargain with the vendor before I got the price
down.
L: how much did she ask for?
J: three hundred! That's daylight robbery. How dare she play tricks on an
old hand like me? Without hesitation, I gave my offer---no more than fifty.
L: she must be fuming with anger at such a bid, wasn't she?
J: not at all! She's really been around, and seemed quite accustomed to
bargaining like this. That's the trade. She only demanded a higher bid, saying
the purchase price was even higher than seventy. She was lying! Then I
inquired:"May I have it at sixty?" she waved her head.
L: then you pretended to go without buying it?
J: yeah. I turned around and started to move out. Just then, she yelped
behind my back:" all right, all right! I may sacrifice a little. Let's fix it
sixty-five! Can't be cheaper."
