Prompt
Compare my written shop quotes on an item-for-item basis. Use columns for specification, quantity, supplied base price, stated extras, calculable total and unknowns. Show the arithmetic; do not assume taxes, delivery, metal purity or a refund policy. Explain where quotes are not comparable and list what to ask each seller. Do not recommend an investment or invent a market price. My details: Quote A: stainless-steel tray, 30cm, one piece, ₹850, delivery ₹80. Quote B: tray, size not given, ₹900, delivery included. Both: taxes and return terms unstated. Use only supplied facts; fictional default details are examples, not a real event. Ask for essential missing input or mark unknowns rather than inventing people, prices, dates, permissions or commitments. Regional and family practices can differ; do not present one practice as a universal rule. Separate known subtotal from a complete payable total: an unstated tax/fee remains unknown, not zero. Mark a quote comparable only when its stated material, dimensions, quantity and included services match; otherwise show the mismatch before any price ranking. Use the supplied figures for each row and do not rank a smaller unknown-specification quote as the cheaper equivalent. Finish with seller-specific questions and no purchase recommendation where essential specifications are unresolved.

Example output
Actual tested output. The notes used for this result are an example, not a real event. This box is not copied. Replace the notes above with your own before you paste the prompt.
The quotes are not comparable. Do not rank one as the cheaper equivalent. No purchase is recommended. No market price is added. Metal purity and refund policy were not stated. Tax is unknown, not zero. Item mismatch, before any price talk - Quote A states a stainless-steel tray, 30cm, one piece. - Quote B states a tray. Material, size, and quantity are not stated. - Delivery is extra and priced on A. Delivery is included on B. - Because material, dimensions, quantity, and included services do not all match, the quotes are not comparable. Specification | Quote A | Quote B Specification | Stainless-steel tray, 30cm | Tray; material not stated; size not given Quantity | One piece | Not stated. Do not assume one. Supplied base price | ₹850 | ₹900 Stated extras | Delivery ₹80 | Delivery included. Do not add another delivery fee. Calculable known subtotal | 850 + 80 = ₹930 | ₹900, with delivery already inside that figure Unknowns, not counted as zero | Taxes and any other fee; return terms; therefore the complete payable total | Taxes and any other fee; return terms; material; size; quantity; therefore the complete payable total Known subtotal is not a complete payable total for either quote. Arithmetic shown - A: 850 + 80 = 930. Tax unknown, so payable total is 930 plus an unknown tax or fee, not 930 as a final bill. - B: 900 includes delivery. Tax unknown, so payable total is 900 plus an unknown tax or fee. It is not valid to write 900 + 0 tax. What the figures do not show A lower or higher known subtotal is not a reason to choose, because B's tray may differ in material, size, and quantity. Ask seller A - Is ₹850 before tax, and what tax or other fee applies? - Does 30cm mean length, width, or diameter? - Is the delivery charge ₹80 the full delivery cost? - What are the return terms? They were not stated. - Any purity or grade claim beyond "stainless-steel"? None was in the quote. Do not assume one. Ask seller B - What material is the tray? - What are the dimensions? - How many pieces does ₹900 buy? - Is ₹900 before tax, and what tax applies? - What does "delivery included" cover, and what are the return terms? No recommendation while material, size, quantity, tax, and returns are unresolved.
