Question : Your car broke down while you were driving to the : 1377602

 

Your car broke down while you were driving to the office one morning. You took it to the nearest service center and were told by the mechanic that you need to pay $500 for the repair. You are confused whether or not to trust him. If you do not trust him, you have to take it to another service center which is far and inconvenient. If you trust him, he can either cooperate or defect. If he cooperates, both of you will gain from the trade. If he defects, he will gain $500 while you will lose your money.
