There are many shops in Singapore where customers still bargain, although prices are clearlyshown on the goods. There is nothing out of the ordinary in haggling; some shopkeepersexpect you to and will be surprised if you accept their prices immediately. We know that theprices in some stores are a bit higher than those in Change Alley, but we also realize thatto keep a store likeRobinson's is by no means cheap. Besides, in such places we shop in air-condition (空调)comfort. For all these, we pay a little extra.It is not always true to say that things in Change Alley cost less. I once bought aCzechoslo- vakian glass butter-dish from Robinson's for a little under two dollars. I thenwent on to Change Alley and just by chance saw an article of the same shape, design andsize, in one of the shops. I then asked about its price, and was surprised when the mandemanded more than four dollars for it. "How much can you offer?" he shouted at me. Ioffered him exactly the same price I paid for the article and his reply was shockingly rude(粗鲁). I opened my bag, showed him my receipt, stared at him and walked out of his shop.A buyer in England expects to find the price of goods clearly shown, or, to be told exactlywhat the price is. He knows this is the lowest price that will be accepted. If he thinks theprice is beyond what he can afford, he shrugs ( 耸耸) his shoulders and walks away. He doesnot attempt to bargain with the shopkeeper. Even if he showed annoyance or surprise, hewould expect to be to that if the price was unacceptable, he should try elsewhere.请不要用翻译工具

在新加坡有很多商店，顾客经常来光顾，尽管价格都清楚地标在货物上，人们还是免不了要讨价还价。一些店主希望你能接受价格，但如果你立即接受了店里的定价，他们反而会吃惊。我们知道这里的价格比真者里要高些。但我们也意识到要开一家像罗宾逊商店这样的店，就意味着不便宜，除此以外我们还可以在店里享受到舒适的空调。就因为这样，我们多付了一些额外的钱。其实真者里的东西也并不都便宜，有一次我在罗宾逊商店买的捷克斯洛伐克的瓦里安玻璃黄油碟就不到2美元。然后有一次我在真者里的一家店里看到相同形状、设计、款式的东西，我问了一下价格，让我吃惊的是要4美元多。“你愿意付多少钱？”他叫着问我。我说出了我当初买的价格，他回答的非常粗鲁。我打开包，给他看我当时的收据，瞪着他离开了店里。一位英国的买家希望商品能清楚地标价，或者明白地告知商品的价格。当他了解这是最低价时他就会接受。如果他认为价格超过了他的预期，他会耸耸肩膀然后离开。他并不打算与店主讨价还价。甚至如果他觉得价格无法接受，但如果他显示出为难或是惊喜，表示他希望得到这件商品，他可能会试着到其他地方去看看。
