If you dont ask, you dont get.

A customer called into the workshop today with a very nice Sony that he has recently bought for £2,600.00. He has broken off one of keys from his keyboard. We had the replacement in stock and were able to offer it to him for £ 3.95.

He asked if there was any discount.
