Tom walked into a shop. It bad a sign outside: "Second-hand replica watches are bought and sold.” He was carrying an old piece of vacheron constantin replica and asked the owner of the shop, "How much will you give me for these?" The man looked at it and then said: "Ten dollars." "What!" said Tom? "I had guessed it was worth at least fifty dollars." "No," said the man, "it wasn’t worth a cent more than ten dollars." "Well," said Tom, taking ten dollars out of his pocket. "Here's your money. The vacheron constantin watch was hanging outside your shop. The list price of it was six hundred dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much it was really worth." Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of watch and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say.
