Genbrug og grådighed - Recycle and Greed

Jeg havde en mærkevare-taske, som jeg gerne ville sælge. Prisen var meget rimelig. En kunde ringede på annoncen, og jeg gav et afslag i prisen. Hun kom med det samme, kiggede på tasken, kiggede i sin pung sagde: "Åh nej, jeg har kun xx antal kr. med! ... pause... Kan du gå ned i pris?". Det var helt oplagt, at hun prøvede at presse mig til at sælge billigere end allerede aftalt. Det gjorde jeg ikke!

Efter at have tænkt lidt over det gav jeg tasken til en Røde Kors forretning inde i byen, der har forstand på kvalitetsting. Så kan man kun håbe, at folk ikke pranger, når beløbet går til et godt formål! En handel skal være noget, som både køber og sælger er tilfredse med.

Hellere give ting væk, end at give efter for grådighed.

I owned a brand bag, which I wanted to sell. The price was really reasonable. A buyer call, and I gave a reduction in price. She came shortly after, looked at the bag, and looked in her purse and said. "Oh no, I only have xx amount of money! ... pausing... Will you sell it at that price?". It was obvious, that she was trying to put pressure on me to sell cheaper than already agreed. I didn't.

After having thought about it, I gave the bag to a charity shop in the city, which has knowledge about good quality. Hopefully people will not haggle, when the money goes to a good purpose.  A deal should be to the satisfaction for both seller and buyer.

Rather give things away, than give in for greed.
