Peter examined the box，and，sure enough，it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic．And he saw a date of 1973on the back of the box．
"You should put that up for auction （拍賣） on the Internet，and see what happens．"the salesgirl said．
"Yes，you're right．People like something rare．"Peter agreed，"I can't imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40years later．"
"Don't forget to tell me if you sell it．"the salesgirl smiled．
"No problem．"Peter said．

Two weeks later，Peter went back to the shop．
"Hello．Do you still remember the unopened word game？"
The salesgirl looked at him for a second，then recognized him and said，"Oh，hi!"
"I've got something for you，"Peter said．"I sold the game and made 1，000．Thankyouforyoursuggestion．"Hehandedherthree 100bills．
