Part 3: Purchasing New Shoes

I need a pair of black high-heeled shoes.
What size do you wear?
In America I wear size seven. I wonder if your sizes are the same as or different from American sizes?
The sizes are different, but I can help you try some on and see. How is the size of this pair?
They seem too small. Do you have any that are one size larger?
This pair is one size bigger, try it on.
This pair is just right. How much does this pair sell for?
1,800 NT.
Hm, they do look nice, but 1,800 NT is too expensive. Could you reduce the price a little?
They just came on the market, nothing I can do.
Then I’ll look around some more.
O.K. If you need anything, you’re welcome to come again.
