Ni hao!
You can say: Xie xie ni, xia ci zai lai!
Xie xie = thank
ni = you
zai lai = come again
xia ci = next time

É um pouco difícil as palavras comprar e vender, a diferença é muito pouca; é bem fácil de confundir as duas.

Some way to click the speech bubble and hear the tones would be cool.

Yes, some sound would be great, sometimes the pronunciation is hard for us.
But congratulation Benny.

There is one way that is helpful to differentiate between the two words.
Ma3i to buy sounds like My , as in ’ this is my book’ or in ‘Oh my god’ (imagine someone saying it slowly when told something shocking and the tones are Oh 2 my 3 god 4 )
Mai4 to sell sounds like My when you are stressing that something is yours;
This is MY book ( not your’s) or the Mi in ‘the book is Mine!’
hope this helps it was invaluable to me getting the sound right
