Well, 1, 5, 7, and especially 9 aren't too bad. Haggling would be far more effective if everyone obeyed Rule 9 above all else! Most stores have a clause that if an item goes on sale within X days of your purchase, they'll refund the difference.
Even Rule 2 isn't a bad idea, per se. Floor models are going to be discounted because they're technically "used" (and were probably abused at some point), so getting rid of it when it's the last piece of that line left is often something you can negotiate with.
However, we're back to Rule 9! More people would get a little bit if they picked their battles better, and didn't turn into screaming EWs when the answer is "No".Any day you're looking down at the dirt instead of up at the dirt is a good day.

Sorry. ANY kind of entitled attitude is an immediate turn off for me. I don't go out of my way for people like that, and in my business I usually do have room for price negotiations.
I'm a salesperson. Any discount I give you generally comes straight out of my paycheck. So you better be nice to me if you expect me to take a hit on my pay.I will not shove “it” up my backside. I do not know what “it” is, but in my many years on this earth I have figured out that that particular port hole is best reserved for emergency exit only. -GK

They think "Well, if it cost YOU $5 then it's unfair to charge me more than $5". Yet then charge $50 thinking "Well, I need to make some money from this".
People like that should be living in the southern USA... before the civil war. They tend to think that people being forced to work for free (which she is insinuating in her article) is slavery.Quote Dalesys:
