we were hoping for more attractive

is there any reason why you can’t sign

the contract today

what we need is an assurance from you

about the future

design tomorrow

actually we are very short-staffed at

the moment would next week be okay

i’m afraid your asking price is too high

if you ask me

this is a good deal for you

this new model is one hundred dollars

well if you lowered the price to 75

dollars i would buy 15 units
