Bad feeling

Today i got a new customer in Turkey. They asked for wooden lamp,which is a very common lamps in middle east. Wayne told me that the cost would be 3.4 USD. So i quoted 5USD to the customer. I thought it is a good price.
This afternoon i got an email From the Turkey guy. They said our price is too high,and their target price is 1USD. "1USD for a lamp?!!!" are you fucking kidding me? I almost yelled at that Turkey guy on the phone.
And it turns out that it is 1USD. Wayne's friend lied to him. Now i have a bad feeling about Wayne. I always thought we have price advantage because of Wayne's connection in Guzhen. But thesedays he gave me too much higher price than i thought. It put me into a very difficult position. I got a feeling that Wayne may be too nice to do this tough business.
