Buyer: Hi. I'm interested in buying your end tables.
Seller: Great.  You'll love the table it is very high quality.
Buyer: Oh? Is there something special about the item that makes it stand out?
Seller: Yes, they are made of high quality oak.
Buyer: That sounds fantastic. What condition are they in? Any scuffs or marks on them?
Seller: They are in good condition.  I could sell one to you for $150.00
Buyer: Any wiggle room there? They really do look fantastic but I'm on a budget. I could pick them up myself for a discount.
Seller: I could come down a little if you picked them up. What would you be willing to offer?
Buyer: I could offer you 100 dollars cash, tonight.
Seller: That might be a little lower than I can take for the table.  If you were able to pick it up and give me $140 cash, I'd do it.
Buyer: That's a bit too high for me sadly. But because they are such high quality I would be willing to stretch myself. How about we meet in the middle? 125 and I take it off your hands tonight? What do you say? Really can't afford any higher.
Seller: You get what you pay for.  I promise you will love this table.  I can come down from my original price, but I still have to get a fair price for the table.  If you can do 129, I'll do the deal.
Buyer: I understand that, but since I'm offering a fast easy deal, cash, an picking it up myself I do think that 125 is fair. It saves you the gas. Plus that is honestly all I have on me. I love the item but I can't go borrowing money to buy it.
Seller: I really want to do the deal with you.  How about $125 cash and you mow my lawn tonight.  That way you don't have to borrow money and I'll get a fair price for the table.
Buyer: As long as it's a small one I guess I could do that.
