Здравствуйте! Можно примерить куртку, висящую на витрине?
Hello! Can I try on the jacket hanging in the window?

B
Конечно. Какой у вас размер, пятидесятый?
Of course. What's your size, a fifty?

A
Да. Сидит отлично, только молния, кажется, сломана.
Yes. It fits great, but the zipper seems to be broken.

Ой, правда. Могу сделать скидку тридцать процентов, если возьмёте как есть.
Oh, so it is. I can give you thirty percent off if you take it as it is.

Тридцать процентов? Беру! Молнию я и сам поменяю.
Thirty percent? I'll take it! I can replace the zipper myself.

Отлично. Пройдёмте на кассу, я пробью со скидкой.
