A Salesperson: Hi! A beautiful car, isn ’ t it? Angela: Well... yeah. How old is it? Salesperson: It ’ s five years old. An elderly lady owned it. She hardly ever drove it. It ’ s only covered 24,000 miles. Angela: How much is it, then? Salesperson: Only $16,900. Angela: Oh. That ’ s too much for me. I ’ m a college student. Salesperson: Well, in that case, I ’ ll give you a good deal. I ’ ll sell it to you for 15,000. Angela: That ’ s still too expensive. How about $12,000? Salesperson: Sorry, I can ’ t go that low. Since you ’ re a student, I ’ ll give you a special deal, 14,000. Angela: Well ... I ’ d take it for $13,000. Salesperson: 13,500. Angela: OK, it ’ s a deal!
