Colour: Grey Name: John Phillips Part 2 Passages Passage 1 In Unusual Shop Transcript

I soon realized that I had entered an unusual kind of shop. There were no goods on display; there was no shop-window: nothing but a number of empty shelves at one end of the room in front of which a man was standing on a raised platform, and shouting loudly that the greatest sale of the year was about to begin. I decided to stay and see what would happen.

A harassed assistant began to pile all sorts of odds and ends on the shelves: table-lamps, cutlery-sets, clocks, electric razors, crockery, vases, and a large quantity of small packets all similarly wrapped in bright red paper. When the man at the table was satisfied that a sufficiently large crowd

of people had collected, he began distributing the packets, asking for the small sum of three pence in return, and declaring that the value of the contents was fifty times as much.

I paid three pence for my packet and was immediately informed that I should not open it until after the sale. The money I had given, I found, entitled me to bid for anything on the shelves. All these beautiful and extremely valuable objects, the man announced, would be given away, simply given away. He was as good as his word, for he held up an electric razor and asked a young man (who from the look of his face needed it) whether it was worth six pence. The man had no doubt about the matter and was promptly handed the razor for the sum asked. The same occurred with a number of other articles.

Then, instead of asking for small sums like six pence, the man began to demand larger amounts for “very rare, high-quality antiques”. The people present, thinking that these too were being “given away”, soon found themselves paying a great deal of money for useless, yacht-like lamps and ugly clocks in carved, heavy frames. I decided I had better go quickly before being tempted into buying something I did not want. I went into the street and opened my prize packet, only to find that I had been rewarded with a cheap bottle of scent.
