砍价使你得到实惠,也真是一门学问。我想下面步步为营的侃价技巧还真得学一学。
一般来说,商家总是在说:
Our prices are not dearer than those in other places.
我们的价格不比别的地方贵。
The price is reasonable because the quality is superior.
这价格是合情合理的,因为质量极好。
你可以向他探探虚实:
That's a bit more than I wanted to pay.
这比我想出的价格高一点。
商家会再诉价格公道:
The prices have already been reduced greatly.
这些价钱本来已经减去许多了。
If you bought it somewhere else, it would cost more than double.
如果您去别处买,价钱就得贵一倍以上。
亮出底牌,继续周旋:
I can give you no more than $40. Can you sell it for that?
我顶多能出40美元,这个价钱你肯卖吗?
店主面有难色:
I'll bring the price down to $50 a piece, if you are going to make a big purchase.
如果您打算大量购买,我就把价格降到每件50美元。
看来价格还是可以商量:
Well then, how about splitting the difference?
那好吧,各让一点怎么样?
You have to strike a balance, if you wish to get somewhere.
如果您想做成生意,你就得使双方不吃亏。
最后商家同意$45出售,看得出他有点忍痛割爱:
That's almost cost price.
这几乎是成本价了。
That's our rock bottom price.
这是我们的跳楼价了。
That's the best we can do .
我们不能再让了。
