A: So, Marie, what's the latest on your hunt for that vintage bag?
B: Well, there's this beautiful leather bag, but the seller is asking 120,000 won for it.
A: Hmm, that's a bit over your budget, right?
B: Yeah, but it's in excellent condition. I should negotiate with the seller.
A: Good idea! Try to haggle your way to about 100,000 won. It's worth a shot.
B: For sure. I'll give it a try and see if he's willing to lower the price.
A: Okay, I'm messaging the seller to see if he'll accept 100,000 won.
B: Fingers crossed! Let's hope he's open to negotiating.
A: I asked if he could do 100,000 won, and he replied... he could do 110,000 won.
B: Not bad! You're getting closer to your budget.
A: I think I can do it! I'll tell him 105,000 won is my final offer.
B: You've got this! Negotiating skills on point!
A: Donny, guess what! We negotiated and settled for 105,000 won!
B: That's amazing, Marie! I knew you could do it.
A: I'm so happy. It's a steal for such a gorgeous vintage bag.
B: You really scored a great deal. The second-hand market can be a treasure trove.
A: Definitely! I'm already thinking about what outfits I can pair with this bag.
A: I've been thinking of getting a bigger car seat for my little one. Do you have any recommendations?
B: Oh, you should check the second-hand market. I got a great deal for my kid last month.
A: Really? But is it safe to buy second-hand?
B: If it's not too old and in good condition, it should be fine. Just make sure to check for any damage.
A: Good point. I'll look around and see what's available. Thanks for the tip!
A: Hi, you must be Bonny. I'm Dan.
B: Hi, Dan. So can I take a look at the car seat?
A: Sure. It's in pretty good condition and never been in an accident.
B: That's great. I see it has all the necessary straps and buckles.
A: Yes, everything's infact. Plus, it's not too old, just a few years of use.
B: Awesome. I'm glad I found a reliable car seat. Let's go ahead with the trade.
