Is a Used Desk Worth Buying

zhè这zhāng张èrshǒu二手zhuōzi桌子bǐ比xīn新de的biànyí便宜yībàn一半，wǒ我yǒudiǎnr有点儿xīn心dòng动。

This used desk costs half as much as a new one. I am tempted.

jiàgé价格bùcuò不错，bùguò不过mài卖jiā家shuō说yào要zìjǐ自己bān搬，nǐ你suàn算guò过yùnshū运输fèiyong费用ma吗？

The price is good, but the seller says you have to collect it. Have you checked the transport cost?

hái还méiyou没有。wǒ我yuánlái原来yǐwéi以为zhǎo找péngyou朋友bāngmáng帮忙jiù就xíng行。

Not yet. I thought I could just ask a friend to help.

zhuōzi桌子néng能chāi拆kāi开ma吗？rúguǒ如果jìn进bù不le了diàntī电梯，bān搬yùn运jiù就máfan麻烦le了。

Can it be taken apart? Moving it could be difficult if it does not fit in the elevator.

mài卖jiā家shuō说néng能chāi拆，bùguò不过yǒu有yī一gè个chōuti抽屉lā拉qǐlai起来bùtài不太shùn顺。

The seller says it can, but one drawer does not slide smoothly.

zuìhǎo最好xiànchǎng现场kàn看kàn看。xiǎo小wèntí问题néng能xiū修，dàn但yě也yào要bǎ把xiūlǐ修理hé和bān搬yùn运de的qián钱jiā加jìnqu进去。

It is best to inspect it in person. A small problem may be repairable, but include repair and moving costs.

suàn算xiàlai下来rúguǒ如果zhǐ只biànyí便宜yīdiǎnr一点儿，wǒ我kěnéng可能háishi还是mǎi买xīn新de的，sòng送huò货yě也fāngbiàn方便。

If the total savings are small, I may buy a new one since delivery is easier.

duì对，xiān先quèrèn确认shíjì实际zǒng总jià价，zài再kǎolǜ考虑shěng省xià下de的qián钱zhí值bùzhí不值de得zhèxiē这些shíjiān时间hé和jīnglì精力。

Right. Check the total cost first, then decide whether the savings are worth the time and effort.
