From Hicks:

Alaunquirie: Can you give an example of the text, how to ask the Chinese for a discount? Don’t just say “Please give a discount” in English.

Hello, I'm a poor African prince whose grandmother died 2 months ago and she gave me some inheritance. Not so big, so I can't buy more than XXXX price. Please give me discount XXXX-15% and I will buy this item. Thanks for the help Seller!
