Three days later, in the office lounge 1


Nate:Guess what, Gilly? I won both bids.

Gilly:Good for you. Did you use PayPal?

Nate:Yeah. It was so easy and super-fast, once I figured it out.

Gilly:That's the beauty of it, and the danger.

Nate:I should get the items within a week. But in the meantime I'm bidding on a digital video camera.

Gilly:How much?

Nate:Thirty U.S. dollars...and it's only been used for six months.

Gilly:Hmmm, sounds like risky 2 business. Good luck.

奈特:有啊。我一搞清楚后,就发现它真是简单又迅速。

吉莉:这就是它的美好之处,也是危险的地方。

奈特:我应该会在一个星期内收到东西。但在此同时,我正在标一台数字摄影机。

吉莉:多少钱?

吉莉:嗯,听来是个有风险的交易。祝好运啦。
