The halfling leans forward and examines both cigars carefully, sniffing and squeezing each in turn. "These are both fine specimens and have traveled fairly well, though I think they are a little dry and salty. I believe you have an even more interesting variety as well?"

"You mean the 5 boxes of these" Michael will pull out his cigar case and remove one of the Ultar Grand Selects..."Yes i belive i have the only remaing boxes until next year"

Inhaling deeply the Halfling continues with a glint in his eye, "Ah yes sir, this is what drove me to seek you out. Certainly I can find a market for the Longtail and even the others, but this is the sort of merchandise I specialize in. My exclusive clients expect me to provide them with the best, especially when no one else can." He takes a sip of wine, "And you'd be willing to deal on these?"

"Ah yes, i could proably arrange a package deal........but the price would be high, very high indeed" Taking a sip of his wine Michale says..."I have 5 boxes available but in all honesty one is tenatively pledeged so that leaves me 4 i can commit for sure...thush making them more exclusive." Fixing him with an eye he says..."What price did you have in mind"

He smiles, clearly enjoying the chance to wheel and deal. "That all depends on how you want to work the deal. I could work as a barter if there is anything you desire. Or I would make more generous terms based on a multiyear deal or even if I took all three grades of cigars off your hands. Would you promise exclusivity in future years? What sort of arangement would you be interested in?"

Taking his time and thinking over the halflings options Michael says "Actually sir, at this moment i am more in need of specie that trade goods in order to make several deals go thru...I would be very interested in bartering for some of the middle grade cigars of which i have 500 boxes @35gp per box....for the base cigars i have 1000 boxes at 8gp per box and then i have this nice cherry flavored one (pulling out on that is favored by halflings" in the amount of 750 boxes at 18 gp per box.The ultra supremes unfortuanly are my access to cash especially in this market at this point in time. Having said that I am provisoanly willing to go 7500gp per box on a bulk deal wich is 500gp off the base price. As for the exclusice contract, that may be an option of course, I would need to think about that and could let you know within 60 days. What combination intersts you sir?

 

[Scotley]

"Needless to say I don't travel to such a place as this with large sums of cash. If we can come to a deal I could offer you 3000 in gold now. Would be willing to accept a note drawn on my bank in the Crosscroft Isles?"

 

[J. Alexander]

"That may be possible. I would need a little time to consider the offer, especialy in regards to the ultra select as I have been lead to belive that i can dispose of the remaing boxes within the next few days at a premieume price. No offesen sir, but i do not know you well enought to take a note to that extent especially as you say in this local. What other goods would you have to barter?"

"Oh I assure you that my bank is most reputable, perhaps you've heard of it? The Hairfoot Trust of Crosscroft?" He raises his hands as if to say, 'it doesn't matter.' "I am most interested in the ultra select of course, my clients expect no less. The cherry is quite nice as well. I'd really like to take all of it off you hands."
