If that happens, you lose your bonus combo, which is where most of your experience comes from. So it pays to be a little conservative, so that they're more likely to accept your first offer. I've actually been doing more research on this, and the person's budget is largely determined by their reputation with you. Whenever you see a little heart pop up, they've gone up a reputation rank, and their budget increases by a factor of ~10. Unfortunately, the number of hearts a customer has is invisible to the player, so it's in your best interest to keep a notepad on hand so you can write down the hearts as you see them. (I wish the game was like Harvest Moon in this way, where there's a little heart icon in the corner to show you.) Oh, and to raise reputation most quickly, sell everything at 104%. You can jack up the price to the max for profit once they've gotten two hearts or so and are willing to spend 100,000pix if you ask them to.

I think your numbers are a little conservative. * Little Girl: 105-112% * Woman: 115%-125% * Young Man: 125% ish * Old Man: 125% ish * Guild Master: 130% (usually) * Louie: 120% Or possibly I'm just a rutheless business, err, person :) I too am playing Recettear – and I LOVE it, it’s so lovingly localised and charming and addictive.
