[Avodah] heard re: negotiations on shabbas

[Joshua Meisner]

One is allowed to speak of tzorchei tzibbur on Shabbos.  See O.Ch 306:6 for
examples.  The prohibition of Mim'tzo cheftzecha that prohibits
non-shabbosdic endeavors and discussions only applied to one's personal
needs, not cheftzei Shamayim.

It appears that one would, therefore, be allowed to discuss the purchase of
a lulav or tefillin on Shabbos, and the Shulchan Aruch (306:11) allows one
to buy a house in Eretz Yisroel from an eino-yehudi on Shabbos.
