Tips On Reception of Foreigners
外事接待注意事項(xiàng)
Bargaining
討價(jià)還價(jià)
Usually when a customer buys something ,he wants to pay at a low price, but the seller prefers a high price,
通常顧客購物時(shí)總是想出低價(jià)，而賣方則想賣出高價(jià)，
so the commercial srategy for a seller is to ask for a high price and give in slowly, whereas a buyer should try his best to bargain with the seller
所以對(duì)于賣方來說，最好的商業(yè)策略便是叫同高價(jià)，然后慢慢讓步，而對(duì)于買方來說，他必須盡力與賣方討價(jià)還價(jià)。
He can find faults with the goods even if he is quite satisfied with them,he must still pretend to be unsatisfied with them,so that he can successfully make the price decine to its minimum.
他可以挑剔商品的毛病，盡管他對(duì)商品非常滿意，他還是必須假裝對(duì)它們不太滿意，這樣他能成功地使價(jià)格降到最低點(diǎn)。
In the course of bargaining, the seller usually makes the starting offer ,and tries to convince the buyer that his price is reasonable for a variety of reasons,
在討價(jià)還價(jià)的過程中，賣方通常最先出價(jià)，并極力說服買方相信，由于種種原因，他的價(jià)格是非常合理的，
such as because the quality is super ,or because the material cost has increased etc...
比如說，因?yàn)樗馁|(zhì)量上乘，或者因?yàn)槌杀緝r(jià)上漲了等等。
The buyer would then make a counter-offer by pointing out that the starting offer is not reasonable because it is too expensive, or because the quality is not up to standard.
然后買方進(jìn)行還價(jià)，并反映出這個(gè)出價(jià)不合理，因?yàn)閮r(jià)格太高，或者因?yàn)橘|(zhì)量不合標(biāo)準(zhǔn)等。
He can even threaten to call the deal off.
他甚至還可以威脅要取消這筆交易。
Both sides can continue to haggle and suggest some other price until agree on the price.
雙方可以繼續(xù)討價(jià)還價(jià)，并不斷報(bào)出新價(jià)，直至最后就價(jià)格達(dá)成協(xié)議
Here is another piece of advice for the buyer.
這里再給買方一則忠告。
Usually the department stores are full of different kinds of goods.
通常商場(chǎng)里商品不可琳瑯滿目。
How are you going to know how to get your money's worth when you shop?
購物時(shí)怎樣才能買到“貨真價(jià)實(shí)”的商品呢?
Perhaps the best advice for you is: Don't worry,.
或許給你的最好忠告便是：別著急。
You can visit various stores and determine the quality of the merchandise, and try to copare the prices.
你可以多逛幾家商場(chǎng)，弄清商品的質(zhì)量，并比較商品的價(jià)格。
In short ,you have to explore and examine the goods carefully before you buy.
簡(jiǎn)而言之，在購物前，你得仔細(xì)檢查這些商品。
In this way, I'm sure you can get a good buy.
這樣我肯定你一定能買到劃算的東西。
