@Eduardoakaedu We say it in multiple ways. If you wanted to use 'round off' or 'round down' I guess you could.
In my opinion 'Could you sell it for $10?' sounds more natural and I think most people would understand what you are saying.
I apologize for confusing you.

I wouldn't say Round it down. Personally it doesn't sound natural to me.
I would say..
'Could you sell it for $10?'
(Basically asking if they can bring the price down and if they are okay with that price.)

@LKviaUS How about ''Could we round it off to $10''?

This isn't important for speaking obviously, but remember in English we use . Instead of , in this case. It would be $13.50

@dspen95 I didn't get it. @LKviaUS So, It was a native English speaker who told me that ''Could we round it down to $10'' is right. He also told me that I could use ''round off'' in that case, but now people are divided, some find it natural and others do not. I'm a bit confused.
