Buyer: okay sounds fun. I would like to experiance this moment and I do not want to offend you but I have $2500 to give and this seems very reasonable. 
Seller: can you do 3000 it is fully furnished and there is a guest cottage
Buyer: I want it but it seems there has to be maintaince every so often on the garden and I like the primitive feel in the guest cottage I really believe we can work out a deal lets do 2600.

PROBLEM: Seller: Hi how are you doing?
Buyer: Good.  How are you?  I am interested in your phone is it still available?
Seller: It is its like brand new! the only condition is that is locked to sprint's network so you will have to use them. I am only asking  99 dollars for it which is an absolute steal!
Buyer: That is not really a steal sorry to tell you.  That same phone on the Sprint network is only $62 at walmart so I could give you $55
Seller: I just looked it up they go for 150 at walmart the lowest i will be able to go is 80 dollars will you accept that?


SOLUTION: phone

PROBLEM: Seller: Hey, are you interested in the bike I'm selling?
Buyer: Yes, can you tell me anything else about it?
Seller: Unfortunately it is a bit on the older side and does need a little bit of work.  But considering the condition it's in, I still think it has the potential to be a great bike with a little work.  Hoping to get $250 for it.
Buyer: I'd love to have it would you be willing to come down to $150 since it needs some work?
Seller: That's too low for me.  How about this, I throw in a new comfortable seat and scrape off the rust, and we go with 230?
