Tips On Reception of Foreigners

外事接待注意事項

Bargaining

討價還價

Usually when a customer buys something ,he wants to pay at a low price, but the seller prefers a high price,

通常顧客購物時總是想出低價，而賣方則想賣出高價，

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

所以對於賣方來說，最好的商業策略便是叫同高價，然後慢慢讓步，而對於買方來說，他必須盡力與賣方討價還價。

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，儘管他對商品非常滿意，他還是必須假裝對它們不太滿意，這樣他能成功地使價格降到最低點。

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,

在討價還價的過程中，賣方通常最先出價，並極力說服買方相信，由於種種原因，他的價格是非常合理的，

such as because the quality is super ,or because the material cost has increased etc...

比如說，因爲他的質量上乘，或者因爲成本價上漲了等等。

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.

然後買方進行還價，並反映出這個出價不合理，因爲價格太高，或者因爲質量不合標準等。

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.

雙方可以繼續討價還價，並不斷報出新價，直至最後就價格達成協議

Here is another piece of advice for the buyer.

這裏再給買方一則忠告。

Usually the department stores are full of different kinds of goods.

通常商場裏商品不可琳琅滿目。

How are you going to know how to get your money's worth when you shop?

購物時怎樣才能買到“貨真價實”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：彆着急。

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，弄清商品的質量，並比較商品的價格。

In short ,you have to explore and examine the goods carefully before you buy.

簡而言之，在購物前，你得仔細檢查這些商品。

In this way, I'm sure you can get a good buy.

這樣我肯定你一定能買到划算的東西。
