What does BUYER mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person or organization that buys something, especially in a business or trade context.
A buyer is simply the party on the purchasing side of a sale, whether that means someone shopping for a house, a company selecting stock for a shop, or an art buyer choosing pieces for a collection. In retail and manufacturing the word often names a specific job: a buyer decides what products a store will stock and negotiates with suppliers over price and quantity. The opposite party in the same transaction is the seller, and the two words are used together constantly in contracts and everyday sales talk.
