"yes, we can't back out of the deal. but i'll hate to part with the rent money every month"
"i think everything will turn out all right, just as long as we don't run out of money. but we have lived through the difficult times before"
"if we don't lose money this year, we'll be doing all right, i suppose we can't count on more than that"
They shopped around, trying to find the best kinds of machines to sell. They also tried to find the best companies to deal with, they checked up on the reputation of each company, they found one dealer seems to be making off with the money that was not his own. So his offer was turned down at once, finally they singled out a dealer that seemed to be honest and sold good machines. "we only deal with the companies who live up to the agreements"
