• SALESPERSON - It's only five years old. An elderly lady owned it. She hardly ever drove it.
• CUSTOMER - How much is it?
• SALESPERSON - Only $16,900.
• CUSTOMER - Oh. That's too much for me. I'm a college student.
• SALESPERSON - Oh. I'll make a deal with you. I'll sell it to you for $15,000.
• CUSTOMER - That's still too expensive. How about $12,000.
• SALESPERSON - No. I can't go that low. Since you're a student I'll give you a special deal. $14,000.
• CUSTOMER - I don't know. Let me think about it.
• SALESPERSON - This morning a man offered $16,000 for this car. He might come back and buy it so you should decide soon.
• CUSTOMER - Well. OK. I'll take it for $13,000.
• SALESPERSON - $13,500.
• CUSTOMER - It's a deal!
