Just thought about this question, see I haggled with a stall owner I see every time at a local comic con I go every year, lovely chap and we always have a little cheeky back and forth about certain figures or collectibles.

What about you? Did you ever haggle once for a particular thing you liked? Or are you the straight person who buys it up front?

I’d like to know!

      Well this explain my vietnamese neighbour’s behaviour, she’s always complaining about store prices and trying to get stuff discounted. Her day is made if something was on sale, even if it wasn’t something she needed. It feels like a win for her

          Yes for sure, a farmer or artisan dealing in smaller volume knows their costs, and will deal for bulk buy etc. Modern corporate sellers know their fixed cost of procurement, warehousing, profit required, and logistics costs, so the price is the price…unless you can deal at the upper corp level for huge buys
