摘要： A computer-implemented method and system for negotiating the purchase of goods and/or services by customers utilizes a simulated human merchant having predefined behavioral attributes. An algorithm representing behavioral attributes of a simulated human merchant is used to receive customer input data relating to particular goods and/or services desired to be purchased. The customer input data is processed to generate merchant responses to the customer input data, and the sale of goods and/or services are agreed to at a particular price as a result of processing of customer replies to merchant responses according to the algorithm.

摘要： A method and apparatus are provided for a computer-implemented on-line price comparison method for performing price comparison and price reduction of goods and/or services sold by a vendor over a computer network, such as the Internet. The price comparison method can be selected by a customer, whereupon the computer program requests a competitor's price by transmitting a price request over the computer network. When the competitor's price is received, it is displayed to the customer. The computer program compares the competitor's price to the item price for the specified item. If the competitor's price is higher, nothing is done. If the competitor's price is lower, however, the computer program presents to the customer the option of requesting a reduced price. If the customer requests a reduced price, the computer program checks to see if the competitor's price is below a predetermined threshold. If it is, the computer program advises the customer to buy the specified item from the competitor. If the competitor's price is not below the threshold, the vendor's item price is reduced and displayed to the customer, who may now purchase the product at a price lower than that of the competition.

摘要翻译： 提供了一种用于计算机实现的在线价格比较方法的方法和装置，用于通过诸如因特网的计算机网络对供应商销售的商品和/或服务进行价格比较和降价。 价格比较方法可以由客户选择，于是计算机程序通过在计算机网络上发送价格请求来请求竞争者的价格。 当收到竞争对手的价格时，会向客户显示。 计算机程序将竞争对手的价格与指定项目的料品价格进行比较。 如果竞争对手的价格更高，没有任何事情做到。 然而，如果竞争对手的价格较低，则计算机程序向客户提出要求降低价格的选择。 如果客户要求降低价格，则计算机程序将检查竞争对手的价格是否低于预定阈值。 如果是，计算机程序建议客户从竞争对手购买指定的项目。 如果竞争对手的价格不低于门槛，供应商的物品价格将被减少并显示给客户，客户现在可以以比竞争对手低的价格购买产品。
