Morning Email Conversations

This morning I sent an email to inquire about a small work of art that I have been coveting for some time now.So I thought why not at least ask the price.
Here are snippets from various emails sent back and forth this morning.
Question:
"I am inquiring about the what is available in the inventory of works by artist, ******."
Answer:
"The following work is available along with the price list for the general public."

You see I didnt  know how to answer the email.I was confused by the line " for the general public". It kinda annoyed me,so I wanted to know what a non general public person was.

Answer:
"Some one of importance"

This annoyed me even more,cause i like to think of myself as a super duper highly important person of mystery..of course.So I had to write back ,right?

Question:
What constitutes a person of importance?
Answer:
Whomever I think is important.
Question:
I'm I important to you?
Answer:
Who are you?
last question I asked..
Question:
Who are we all really?
I'm still waiting for an answer..
