Good morning! Everything looks amazing. Are these strawberries local?

是的！今早从我们北边20英里的农场现摘的。6美元一篮。要尝一个吗？

Sure! Wow, these are really sweet. I'll take two baskets. Do you also have any local honey?

有的！有野花蜜和薰衣草蜜。野花蜜小瓶12美元，大瓶20美元。薰衣草蜜小瓶15美元。

都收！我手机上有刷卡器。现金也行。Venmo 也可以，看哪个方便。
I'll pay by card. Thank you! This honey will make a great souvenir.
刷卡吧。谢谢！这个蜂蜜当伴手礼很好。
Flea Market Bargaining · 跳蚤市场讨价还价
intermediateHi, this vintage leather bag is really cool. How much are you asking for it?
你好，这个复古皮包好酷。多少钱？
💡 在跳蚤市场，"How much are you asking?" 比 "How much is it?" 更常用，暗示价格可以商量。
That's a beautiful piece! It's genuine Italian leather, probably from the '70s. I'm asking $85 for it.
这件很漂亮！是真正的意大利皮革，大概70年代的。我要85美元。
It's nice, but $85 is a bit much for me. Would you take $60?
确实不错，但85美元对我来说有点贵。60美元行吗？
💡 在跳蚤市场讨价还价是正常的，通常从标价的60-70%开始还价。
I appreciate the offer, but $60 is too low for this quality. How about $75? I'll throw in a matching coin purse.
谢谢你的出价，但这个品质60美元太低了。75美元怎么样？我再送一个配套的零钱包。
The coin purse is cute. How about $70 with the coin purse? That's my final offer.
零钱包挺可爱的。70美元加零钱包怎么样？这是我的最终出价。
You drive a hard bargain! Alright, $70 it is. You got yourself a deal.
你还价真厉害！好吧，70美元成交。你赚到了。
Awesome! Can you tell me more about where this bag is from? Is there any history behind it?
太好了！能告诉我更多这个包的来历吗？有什么故事吗？
I got it from an estate sale last month. The previous owner was a collector who traveled a lot in Europe. All the hardware is original brass. It's a real treasure.
上个月从一场遗产拍卖会上淘到的。前主人是个收藏家，经常在欧洲旅行。五金件都是原装黄铜的。真的是个宝贝。
That's a great story. I love it even more now. Thanks, and happy selling!
故事真棒。我更喜欢这个包了。谢谢，祝生意兴隆！
