二手服装 · Vintage Clothing
basicHi! I love the vibe of this shop. Do you specialize in any particular era?
你好!我很喜欢这家店的氛围。你们专门做哪个年代的?
💡 Vibe是美国年轻人常用俚语,指氛围、感觉。直接说目的而非客套话很常见。
Thanks! We focus mainly on 70s, 80s, and 90s clothing. We get new inventory every week. The racks on the left are organized by decade, and on the right by clothing type. Feel free to dig around — the best finds are usually hidden!
谢谢!我们主要做70、80和90年代的服装。每周有新货到。左边的衣架按年代分,右边按服装类型分。随便翻翻——最好的东西通常藏在里面!
💡 “dig around”在这里是“随便翻翻”的意思,指可以在商品中仔细寻找,不必拘束。对初次接触的中国人可能会觉得不礼貌
I'm looking for a vintage denim jacket. Something from the 90s maybe.
我在找一件复古牛仔夹克。90年代的可能。
Great taste! We have several over here. This Levi's one is from '92 — it's in excellent condition. Original buttons, no tears, just some nice natural fading. This one's a medium.
好眼光!这边有几件。这件Levi's是92年的——状态很好。原版纽扣,没有破损,只有自然的褪色。这件是中号。
It looks great! How much is it?
看起来不错!多少钱?
This one is $65. For a genuine 90s Levi's in this condition, that's actually a really good deal. Similar ones go for over $100 online.
这件65美元。对于这个状态的正品90年代Levi's来说,其实很划算。网上类似的卖100多美元。
Can I try it on? And is there any wiggle room on the price?
能试穿吗?价格有商量的余地吗?
💡 询问价格能否商量时,用'wiggle room'很地道。
Fitting room is in the back. As for the price, I can do $55 if you're paying cash. We also have a 'buy 3, get the cheapest free' deal if you find other things you like.
试衣间在后面。价格的话,如果付现金55美元可以。如果你还看中别的,我们有'买三件最便宜的免费'的活动。
💡 在美国一些小店现金支付可能获得折扣
It fits perfectly! I'll take it at $55. Do you also buy second-hand clothes? I want to clear out some things from my closet.
穿着正好!55美元我要了。你们也收二手衣服吗?我想清理一下衣柜。
💡 美国卖二手衣有多种方式,商店会收购或寄卖
We do! We buy and also do consignment. For buying, I'll offer you a price on the spot. For consignment, we display it and split the sale price 60/40 — you get 60%. Just bring your items in and I'll take a look.
收的!我们收购也做寄卖。收购的话,我当场给你报价。寄卖的话,我们展示出来,销售价格六四分——你拿60%。把东西带过来我看看。
💡 '寄卖'(consignment)是美国二手店常见模式。

intermediateI'm interested in this pocket watch in the display case. Can you tell me more about it?
我对展柜里这个怀表很感兴趣。能介绍一下吗?
Ah, wonderful eye! That's a 1920s Elgin pocket watch. It's gold-filled — not solid gold, but gold layered over base metal, which was standard for that era. The movement still works beautifully. Would you like to hold it?
哦,好眼力!那是一个1920年代的Elgin怀表。包金的——不是纯金,而是在基础金属上镀金层,那个年代的标准工艺。机芯运转得很好。要拿在手上看看吗?
💡 'Gold-filled'指包金,非纯金,了解材质对价值判断很重要。
It's beautiful. What condition would you say it's in? I see some scratches on the case.
很漂亮。你觉得状态怎么样?我看到表壳上有一些划痕。
I'd rate it as 'very good' condition — which in antique grading means it shows normal wear consistent with its age but has no major damage. The scratches are superficial and expected on a 100-year-old piece. The crystal is original and uncracked, which adds to the value.
我给它评为'很好'的状态——在古董评级里意味着有与年代一致的正常磨损但没有重大损伤。划痕是表面的,对一件100年的物品来说很正常。表镜是原装的而且没有裂纹,这增加了它的价值。
💡 'Wear and tear'指正常使用磨损,评估古董时常用。
How do I know it's genuine and not a reproduction?
我怎么知道它是真品不是复制品?
Great question. I can show you the serial number inside the case back — it matches Elgin's production records for 1923. The movement has the correct jewel count and markings for that model. We also provide a certificate of authenticity with every antique purchase over $100. I stand behind everything I sell.
好问题。我可以给你看表壳背面的序列号——和Elgin 1923年的生产记录一致。机芯的宝石数量和标记都符合那个型号。我们还为每件超过100美元的古董提供真品证书。我对我卖的每件东西负责。
💡 在美购买古董时,商家提供序列号、证书等是建立信任的常规范。
That's reassuring. How much are you asking for it?
这让我很放心。你要价多少?
It's priced at $350. For a working 1920s Elgin in this condition with the original crystal, that's very fair. I've seen comparable pieces sell for $400 to $500 at auction. I can also offer a 10% discount if you pay cash.
标价350美元。对于一个这种状态的、能运转的1920年代Elgin,原装表镜,这个价格很公道。我见过类似的在拍卖会上卖400到500美元。如果付现金我可以再打九折。
💡 美国很多小店或个体销售者会提供现金折扣,因为可以避免刷卡手续费,这在有些国家不常见。
Would you take $280 cash?
280美元现金行吗?
I appreciate the offer, but $280 is a bit low for this piece. I could do $300 cash — that's my best price. I'll also include a nice presentation box and the authentication certificate. Deal?
感谢您的出价,但280美元对这件东西来说有点低。300美元现金可以——这是我的最低价了。我还会附赠一个精美展示盒和鉴定证书。成交?
💡 'Deal?'是问是否成交,很地道。'送额外物品'常用于促成交易。
$300 with the box and certificate — you've got a deal!
300美元带展示盒和证书——成交!
Wonderful! You're getting a real treasure. Let me wrap it up carefully for you. If you ever want to get it serviced, I can recommend a good watchmaker. Enjoy your new piece of history!
太好了!您得到了一件真正的珍品。我仔细给您包好。如果以后需要保养,我可以推荐一位好的钟表师。享受您的这件历史珍品吧!
