Okay, now you've asked about the price, you've commented that it's a bit too expensive.
现在你已经询问了价格，并表达自己觉得这个价格太贵的观点。
It's time to make an offer. It's time to say what you can pay for it. So, there are a couple of phrases that you can use.
是时候报价了。这个时候你就可以说出自己的价格。你可以使用一下几种表达。
You can say, for example: 'Would you sell it for $200?' That's really low. You can also say: 'Would you take $200?', 'How about $200?'
例如，‘200美元卖不卖？’这个价格真的较低了。你也可以说：‘200美元卖么？’以及‘200美元怎么样？’
If you want to be very direct: 'I'll give you $200.' Okay? So, very direct, saying: 'I will give you $200.'
如果你想更直接一点，你可以说：‘我出200美元。’就非常直接的说：‘我给200美元。’
Now, it's in their face. Right? So they're like: 'Oo, it's $200. I want $500, but this man is offering me $200 right now.'
现在价格给他们了。他们会想：‘我要500美元，但这个人现在就给200美元。’
Maybe this phrase will get you the result you want. Maybe not. Maybe they'll say:
或者这么说能让你如愿，或者不能。卖家可能会说：
'Uh, I'm still not comfortable with 200. Maybe you can meet my halfway. Maybe you can give me 350.' Or something like that.
‘200还是不行。要不我们各让一半。350美元怎么样？’之类的。
So, you heard me say: 'Meet me halfway.'
句中短语‘各让一半。’
This is some extra vocabulary that I'm going to give you guys now.
这是我要教给大家的一些额外词汇。
So: 'to meet someone halfway' or 'to meet someone in the middle' is to basically take the high cost, the high price,
所以‘to meet someone halfway’或‘to meet someone in the middle’，指的是卖家报一个高价，
take the low offer of the person, and then compromise, meet in the middle. So, for example, the buyer wants to pay $200.
买家说一个低价，然后将两个价格进行折中。例如，买家愿意出200美元，
The seller wants the buyer to pay $500. 'Can you meet me in the middle? Can you meet me halfway?' Maybe between 200 and 500 is 350.
卖家要500美元。双方各让一步，200和500的折中价格就是350美元。
So, they'll say: 'Okay. I can meet you halfway.
所以卖家会说：‘折中价可以。
I can meet you in the middle, and we'll agree to pay $350.' Now, again, maybe the seller thinks that $200 is really low.
我可以折中一下，350美元。’现在或许卖家觉得200美元太少了。
He thinks that is a terrible offer, so he might say: '$200, that's a lowball figure.'
他认为这个价格不行，所以他会说：‘200美元，那根本是虚报低价。’
So, imagine like when you're negotiating, you're kind of playing a game of baseball in a way.
想想一下，当你俩在讨价还价的时候，你们就有点像是在玩棒球游戏。
So 'a lowball figure' is a low number that the seller... Sorry.
所以‘虚报低价’是低价，卖家.....不好意思。
The buyer knows is a low number because they expect the seller to give them, you know, better than $500 still.
买家知道这个价很低，因为他们希望卖家给他们一个比500美元更好的报价。
And the person selling might ask: 'Do you have a ballpark? Do you have...? What's your price range? What is your budget? What is your ballpark?'
卖家可能会问：‘你的价格范围是多少？’
You can say: 'My ballpark is between $200 and $300. That's how much money I am looking to spend.'
你可以说：‘我的范围是在200美元到300美元之间。这就是我能给的价格。’
Which, again, the final question: 'I'm looking to spend between X and Y.'
最后一个问题：‘我希望的价格是在X和Y之间。’
So, we've asked about the cost, we have commented about the cost and not liking it, we've made an offer,
我们问过了价格，表达了自己觉得这个价格太高，然后给出了自己的价格，
we've maybe used some extra vocabulary to kind of make the exchange nice and social and comfortable.
我们可能已经使用了一些额外的词汇来让交流变得友好和舒适。
And hopefully at the end of all this, you are the proud owner of a black globe thing. Yay. That's it. All right.
最后希望大家能因为拥有这个黑色的球形的东西而感到自豪。
