A: 	what about you ? 
B: 	i'm looking at everything too
A: 	oh
A: 	alright
A: 	well
A: 	i think you must have a preference for one thing more than the others
B: 	um
B: 	not right now i would like to see what you would choose
B: 	first and what are you most interested in
A: 	oh
B: 	before i make a decision
A: 	well
A: 	um
A: 	i like the plates and the chairs
B: 	okay
A: 	do you like the plates ? 
B: 	um yes i like the plates
A: 	ok
A: 	how do you feel about the chairs ? 
B: 	i also like the chairs too
A: 	oh really ? 
B: 	yes
A: 	ok
A: 	what do you think about the clock ? 
B: 	um i like the clock too
A: 	alright
A: 	um
A: 	what's your preference ,  between plates and chairs ? 
B: 	i'm looking to receive both of them
A: 	oh really ? 
B: 	yes
A: 	huh
A: 	well
A: 	what do you propose we do ? 
B: 	um
B: 	well the decision is in both of our hands
B: 	so
A: 	true
B: 	i would like to know what would you like to do
A: 	well
A: 	let me see .  .  . 
A: 	do you have any first ideas ? 
B: 	no because i want to see what you want
A: 	oh
B: 	maybe we can make a fair trade
A: 	well
A: 	sure
A: 	how about this ? 
A: 	what do you think about me getting two chairs and one plate and you getting one chair ,  one plate ,  and the clock ? 
A: 	so we'll take three items apiece
B: 	um
B: 	no
B: 	that will not work for me
A: 	why is that ? 
B: 	because
B: 	i have some buyers for
B: 	the chairs
B: 	so
A: 	really ? 
B: 	yes guaranteed buyer guaranteed money
A: 	well
A: 	same here
B: 	so i disagree with that
A: 	what do you have in mind ? 
B: 	um why don't i take the chairs and you take the plates and the clock
A: 	no ,  that's not gonna work for me . 
B: 	why not
A: 	well
B: 	this is guaranteed
A: 	i have a buyer for the chairs so i know i can definitely make my money's worth
A: 	can i take two chairs and the clock and you take one chair and both plates ? 
A: 	i know you have buyers for these plates since they're in really good condition
B: 	um
B: 	no
B: 	i disagree with that
B: 	i don't have any buyers for the plates i have buyers for the chairs
A: 	are you saying you can't move the plates at all ? 
B: 	i could but it would take awhile
B: 	but i have a guaranteed buyer for the chairs
B: 	so i would like all of the chairs
A: 	it's the same for me
B: 	i feel like
B: 	if we end up going to the auction
B: 	we each would receive less
B: 	but
A: 	true
B: 	if we can divide things here this is a guarantee for us right now
A: 	yeah
A: 	it's better to figure out a way to go in fifty fifty instead of having a bidding war
B: 	right
B: 	so
B: 	what i'll do i'll okay i'll take you up on that offer
B: 	i'll take
B: 	the plates and the chair
A: 	so
A: 	are you suggesting i get two chairs and the clock and you get one chair and both plates ? 
B: 	no i change my mind i want two of the chairs
A: 	well
A: 	i don't want to do that ! 
B: 	and
A: 	it's pretty obvious that we both want the chairs
B: 	and
B: 	so you wouldn't have a buyer for the plates
A: 	well
A: 	the plates are lovely
A: 	but
A: 	i've got a buyer who's interested in these chairs
B: 	and so do i
A: 	well
A: 	that one's kinda hard
A: 	apparently we want the same thing
B: 	so if we can't make a decision now and if we end up going to the auction
B: 	there's only a guarantee that
B: 	one is one of us would receive one chair only
B: 	and not two so we might as well decide right now
A: 	yeah
A: 	sounds good
A: 	um
B: 	getting one chair is better than receiving nothing one chair and two plates
B: 	that's better than just receiving one chair
A: 	yeah
A: 	that's right
A: 	um
A: 	what do you propose we do ? 
B: 	you take the plates
B: 	'cause i'm sure you have like a
B: 	wide range of
B: 	customers that would be willing to
B: 	pay
B: 	a top notch price for these plates
B: 	and you take a chair
B: 	and i take these two
B: 	chairs
B: 	and
B: 	i'll even throw in the clock for you
A: 	let me think for a second . 
A: 	um
A: 	alright ,  that works
A: 	deal
B: 	thank
B: 	you
B: 	nice doing
A: 	thank you
B: 	business with you you're welcome
A: 	until next time
B: 	alright bye sam
A: 	goodbye
