Lin: Glad to meet you again, James.
James: Hi, Lin.Glad to meet you, too.Are you prepared to start another round ?
Lin: I really have to say you are an expert in price negotiation.Have you got the feedback from your head office?
James: Yes, they still think your price is on high side, compared with what quoted by other suppliers.
Lin: As you know, the sustaining inflation and dull economic situation results in the increasing in the cost of raw material.Given the increasing cost of our production, our offer is very close to our bottom.And you know, as famous brand in this field, our silk products are of superior quality.
James: They are of the best quality, but we simply can't accept this price.Frankly speaking, two of your competitors have made us an offer at a price 10% lower than yours.After comparing samples, we believe the quality is similar.Buyers won't pay more for similar quality.
Lin: Our price is a bit higher, but the quality of our production is far superior to those of other competitors, it is not SIMILAR.Then what's the acceptable price in your mind?
James: Will you consider reducing your price by 10% ?
Lin: That's much more than we can do for you.But considering our long friendly business relationship, we are ready to reduce our price by 5 % if your quantity is not less than 5000 pieces.You know, business mainly rely on the size of your order.
James: We accept the quantity.But for this quantity, our final counter- offer requires a cut of 7%.I hope you'll consider it again.
Lin: Since it is a big order, I think we'll accept your price as an exception.It's quite a bargain.
James: If I place an order now, when would you be able to ship it ?
Lin: We should be able to get that off to you right away.Are you ready to place your order now?
James: The order will be mailed to you next week.

Over the weekend, we spent hours and hours, staying up late into the night, talking about the people she was hanging around with. She started telling me stories about her new boy friend, about how he experimented with drugs and was into other self-destructive behavior. I was blown away! She told me how she had been lying to her parents about where she was going and even stealing out to see this guy because they didn't want her around him. No matter how hard I tried to tell her that she deserved better, she didn't believe me. Her self-respect seemed to have disappeared.
I tried to convince her that she was ruining her future and heading for big trouble. I felt like I was getting nowhere. I just couldn't believe that she really thought it was acceptable to hang with a bunch of losers, especially her boy friend.
By the time she left, I was really worried about her and exhausted by the experience. It had been so frustrating that I had come close to telling her several times during the weekend that maybe we had just grown too far apart to continue our friendship, but I didn't.I put the power of friendship to the ultimate test. We'd been friends for far too long. I had to hope that she valued me enough to know that I was trying to save her from hurting herself. I wanted to believe that our friendship could conquer anything.
A few days later, she called to say that she had thought long and hard about our conversation, and then she told me that she had broken up with her boy friend. I just listened on the other end of the phone with tears of joy running down my face. It was one of the truly rewarding moments in my life. Never had I been so proud of a friend.
