Just speak in slow English, louder and louder until they understand.

Oui?

Have you tried speaking loudly and slowly, or writing emails with capslock on?

Easy:

Parlais vous Anglais?

If the answer is "no" then probably not worth talking to anyway

It's important to conclude the deal with neither party sure of what the other was saying.

Post pics of the hilariously tragic outcome. Thanks!

[~Divine~Wind~]

Get google translate on your phone. You speak in english, it speaks the translation.

Freefaller and Killerkebab are both native French speakers, I think Dave lived in France for a while although there are no doubt more, I think mjt might also speak French. It's not going to help you in a face to face meeting though.
