"How Much Do You Want for That?"

Today I got a call from someone asking if we had a particular item. When I told him we did, he asked, "How much do you want for that?"

How much do we want for that?? Try, "How much does that cost?" or "What's the price?"

"How much do you want for that?" sounds like he's bargaining at a flea market or a garage sale. Would he ask that at Safeway or Macy's? Grr.

For the record, my response was: "I don't want anything for it, but my boss wants $15."
