Madame and M. Loisel found the string of diamonds they were looking for. The price was thirty- six thousand francs. They needed time to raise that much money, and they pleaded with the jeweller not to sell it to anyone for three days. They made an arrangement that the jeweller would buy it back for thirty-four thousand francs if the other necklace was found before the end of February. Yes, I think the deal was quite fair.
