PROBLEM: Seller: Hi
Buyer: Hi, I'm interested in your camera. How long have you had it?
Seller: It's brand new I pulled it out the box and realized it wasn't what I was looking for but was unable to return it.
Buyer: I see, it's just this is an older model so I thought maybe you've had it for few years. I wanted to get something like it for my nephew who is too young for a DSLR which would cost too much and I think this would work. COuld I get it for $58?
Seller: Well played I can come down to 58$.
Seller:
Buyer: Great. Glad we could make a deal. Can I pick this up or are you only shipping it?
Seller: I can bring it to you.
Buyer: great. I'll send all my info and hopefully you can come this weekend.

PROBLEM: Seller: Hello how are you?
Buyer: I'm okay. You drive alot.
Seller: No I do not drive the car all that much it only has 50,000 Miles on it.
Buyer: Oh but you drive it long distances? Like to Canada and back? That's really far.
Seller: Yes and I drive it there 2 times a year so not too bad.
Buyer: Hmm, well I guess your right that isn't very bad.
Seller: I just bought a new car when this one started acting up and need it gone as I have no use for it anymore.
Buyer: Acting up with only 50,000 miles, you must be a mechanic. Well, I'll give you 6300
Seller: Well I was really looking to get 7000 out of it could you do 6800?
Buyer: fine

PROBLEM: Seller: Hello, are you interested in the apartment I have listed?
Buyer: Yes I am but the price is a bit high. Any wiggle room in the price?
Seller: Well, it's a beautiful apartment and very convenient. However, I am willing to listen to your offer and see if we can come to an agreement.
Buyer: Would you offer the unit for $2000?
Seller: Best I can do is come down to 2500 even. I have expenses I have to cover, and I've put a lot of work into it before putting it on the market.
Buyer: That seems reasonable. How about $2400? I would really like to rent this unit. However, I do wish it came with a private parking spot instead of off-street parking, but I am still very interested if you can come down to $2400.
Seller: I think I can live with that. I accept your offer of $2,400. Let's set up a meeting to get the ball rolling.
Buyer: Great!
