question:
Buyer: hey, is that printer still for sale?
Seller: Yes the item is still available.  Thank you for contacting me showing an interest in the item
Buyer: any issues with it? How much were the ink cartridges for it?
Seller: The printer is in "like new"  condition with no issues and works great.     Only reason I am selling the item is because it wasnt what I needed and I had  purchased a newer laser jet vs. ink jet model
Buyer: would you take 15?
Seller: The $25 asking price includes two new ink cartridges PLUS the nearly full cartridge inside the machine so Im firm on the price.    And to answer your other question the ink cartridges are very cheap for this model only $7.99 a cartridge plus tax of course.   :)  
Buyer: oh if it comes with 2 refills and there is one in it, I am good with 25
Buyer: 
Seller: Sounds great,  we have a deal then.
Seller:

question:
Buyer: I'm interested in purchasing the mattress you are selling.  Could you tell me something about it?
Seller: Great, I sure can! It is a Serta Twin XL mattress in excellent condition, with box springs and a frame. It's only 2 years old, so you could get many more years of use out of it! I will also be throwing in a set of sheets and a comforter for free.
Buyer: I'm very interested.  I am a starving college student, however, and the $275 is a bit high for me.  Would you consider $225?
Seller: I totally understand. I am pretty strapped for cash since I am moving. I paid a little over $350 for it, so what if we meet in the middle at $250?
Buyer: I'm pretty sure I can hit my brother up for the other $25.  Let's do it for the $250.
