“The largest bed we have in stock is 6.5 feet wide,” the salesperson chimed in, sensing a big sale. “But we can custom–order one up to 8 feet if you’d like. Would you be

The salesperson hesitated, professionalism kicking in. “Sir, the

frame is in stock, but the mattress requires a special order— ake about a month to arrive. Also, the mattress alone is two million dollars. Is that alright with you?”
