Buyer: So, what's wrong with this phone?
Seller: It starts but won't go past the boost screen. I am no phone expert though.
Buyer: Well, I think we can make a deal, I would like to buy the phone on the chance I can get it to work again.
Seller: Great. How much would you like to offer.
Buyer: Well, are there any other problems with the phone besides the boot screen problem you mentioned?
Seller: None I know. I am not an expert though. I just buy phones. Never fixed one myself.
Buyer: Well, for a 6 year old used phone that may or may not work, that has been replaced by a new phone that costs only $75, I'm willing to take a chance and offer $15.
Seller: Would you be willing to do $20?
Buyer: No, I have to stay firm at $15, there's a good chance that the phone is in a permanent bootloop state that I can't do anything to recover, and then I'd have to just recycle it. 
Seller: Can we meet in the middle at 18?
Buyer: I'll do $17, that's my best offer.
Seller: Ok sounds good.
