10 minutes later

"Alright so what's the best you can do on these records?"

"Oh, uhhh, dude we were closed for four months. I told you that. These are full price. That'll be $27."

"Ohhhh man REALLY? No discount?"

NO YOU FUCKING TWAT. YOU DON'T GET A FUCKING DISCOUNT.
What you should have done during those four months is mark up every single album. That album should have been priced $34. If questioned the price tell him how the quarantine been tough on business. If he ask for a discount, give him a $7 discount. Have him go home feeling like he saved $7 when in reality you knew you were going to sell that album for $27 anyway. Something like that.
