a	hi
a	how's it going ?
a	pretty good
a	what is your name ?
a	i'm sam
a	nice to meet you
a	so
a	we gotta split this stuff ?
b	so what do you want to do
a	ok
b	uh well i have a client that's interested in the uh the records
b	so
a	let's get down to business
b	yeah i definitely agree taking the price down a bit will make this easier on both of us
a	which of these items do you want ?
b	yes
a	well
b	so do i
a	you know , actually i've got my eyes on all of the items
b	that sounds great
a	what about you ?
b	okay
b	um
b	let me see
b	it still doesn't work for ya
a	oh , okay
a	what's your preference , between plates and chairs ?
b	i take all the records or just two boxes
a	uh huh
b	do you think that's a fair deal
a	well
a	which of these items are you most leaning towards ?
b	what are you interested in
a	ok
a	well
a	what's your feeling on that clock right there ?
b	uh i'm still figuring it out what about you what are you interested in
a	um
a	well , that's an interesting idea .
b	i don't really deal in clocks
b	in my shop so that's not really a priority for me
b	i have i have a customer base that's basically in furnitures and plates and household goods
a	but
b	um
b	i don't have as many clients that come in and ask for records
b	so maybe
b	maybe i could take a box a xxx a crate and you could take a two crates
a	the clock is the last thing i'm concerned about
a	what are you thinking about the plates ?
b	hi sam
b	i'm rob
a	uh huh
a	well um
a	let me see . . .
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	i can definitely do something with the chairs
b	what's your name
a	what do you think about me getting two chairs and one plate and you getting one chair , one plate , and the clock ?
b	both set sets of china the of uh
b	the dishes
b	so
b	i was thinking
a	i bet you'd turn a profit on that pretty clock
b	so i think it'd be fair if i left with a lamp and you left with a lamp
a	and
a	i bet antique collectors would pay good money for those plates
a	well
b	uh
b	quite honestly i you know what i'm not that interested you you're welcome to take that clock
a	let me think for a second .
b	mm okay
b	here we go here we go
b	alright
b	let's see
b	let me see and how about i take one of them
b	let's see uh um
b	and um
b	how about
b	no you're saying you would like the plates
b	how about that
a	you could take one plate
a	how does that sound to you ?
b	you're most interested in lamps
a	well um
a	i have a buyer for the chairs so i know i can definitely make my money's worth
b	oh i i i understand that and i'm trying to be fair with you i think that's that's why we're sitting down and having this discussion
a	what about you ?
b	isn't it
a	same here
b	yeah that's what i'm thinking
a	well um
b	um i would say
b	the chair
a	that one's kinda hard
b	okay lemmee try this
b	oh
b	how's that
a	so you like the chairs the most ?
b	neither do i so we have a dilemma here don't we
a	is that right ?
a	ok
a	how much do you care about the plates ?
b	same as
b	for me
a	i know you have buyers for these plates since they're in really good condition
b	hmm
b	maybe
a	not really .
b	okay
b	so then i would say uh this this would be
b	i mean if you already have someone then
b	those lamps are important to you
b	right
a	no .
b	okay
a	the chairs are the easiest for me to move
a	but
a	i like plates too
a	it should be how we have it here , with me getting two chairs and one plate and you getting one chair , one plate , and the clock
a	i think it's a good deal
b	you got it have a good day
a	oh really ?
b	hi nice to meet you
a	huh
a	what do you propose we do ?
b	uh yes you do have a point there
b	so maybe i'll go back to the deal you wanted
b	would you like the red the purple or the
b	gold
b	the red chair
a	well um
b	which are the ones that you'd like to take for your fifty percent
a	can i take two chairs and the clock and you take one chair and both plates ?
b	yeah
a	so you don't want the clock
a	is that right ?
a	that doesn't feel right to me .
a	me getting two things and you getting four is not a good deal at all
a	well
a	i probably could find a buyer for the clock
a	how many customers do you have for that clock ?
a	well um
a	let's say i take two chairs and one plate and you take one chair , one plate , and the clock
a	well
a	what do you wanna do ?
a	that doesn't work for me because i really want the chairs more than anything
a	let's say i take two chairs and the clock and you take one chair and both plates
a	your customers would probably love those plates
a	that is a nice and equitable solution
a	what do you think ?
a	alright
a	well
a	yeah
a	well
a	the clock is something that i could be open to
a	the clock might sell
a	how valuable is the clock to you ?
a	really ?
a	huh
a	well
a	what would you suggest ?
a	yeah
a	absolutely
a	the plates are worth good money
a	well
a	your customers would probably love those plates
a	um
a	i don't want to do that !
a	that doesn't feel right to me .
a	well
a	let's take three items apiece
a	we're almost out of time
a	ok
a	deal
a	thank you very much
a	nice seeing ya , alex
a	goodbye
