RE: The Value of Negotiation; What You Should Know About Negotiating
Dear @gbenga
I understand that different people and regions have different practices and norms but do people negotiate while trying to conclude on a deal or do they just accept the price giving to them?
Obviously if you're making a deal - then there is room for negotation. But if price is fixed and displayed - then noone will ever like to 'negotiate' and if you would try to do that, then you most likely will be treated very poorly. Like someone unwanted.
Seriously, if you try to bargain then most people will treat you like a joke and time-waster. I've been to north africa and middle east. I went through russia, mongolia, china. I've spent years in number of Asian countries. So I believe I've some view on that issue :)
Yours, Piotr
When prices are fixed then the seller is saying that there is no room to negotiate and this is common with supermarkets but in Open markets in so many parts of Africa, you are expected to negotiate because every seller wants to make an extra profit
