PROBLEM: Seller: Hello
Buyer: Hello, I saw your ad for your iphone 7, so it is brand new sealed in box?
Seller: Yes, Its completely brand new. Never used. 
Buyer: Will it work with Boost Mobile?
Seller: It's unlocked and will work with every service provider. 
Buyer: Excellent, I think my only concern is the lack of a warranty.  Do you provide any protection?  What if it breaks within the first week or month of using it?
Seller: Good question. It does not have a warranty, but I believe that apple-care is around $99. I could knock off a bit of the selling price so that you could purchase the apple-care. I'm looking to get this off my hands ASAP.
Buyer: Okay, I'm comparing it to several other offers I've seen on ebay.  What about if we do $550 so that I can get that applecare warranty and I'll bring you cash today?
Seller: That's a bit low for me. This model sells for around $1,000 if you were to purchase a new one today and the condition of this phone is completely new and untouched. What if I offered $620?
Buyer: I'm still a little nervous that it won't work with my network, if it doesn't work with Boost will you take it back within 24 hours?
Seller: I understand. I would definitely take it back as long as it's within a 24 hour period. You could check with your provider and get back to me. You could also do that while we're together before you even hand me the money.
Buyer: Okay good idea, then let's meet and I'll bring the $620 and call Boost while we're together, sound good?
Seller: You have a deal.
