How to Bargain like an Asian

Earlier I was chatting with Sunny and coaching her on some negotiating tips. I gave up in frustration and finally asked her, "Don't you know how to bargain like an Asian? You have been on the AZNLover site for a long time." She said she didn't.

So let's help Sunny out with your best bargaining and negotiating tips.

im not much of a bargainer when i shop, more when it's business related. but i do see my mom say with a completely stern face, "how about $40?" when an item is $60.

and i'm like "mom, this is Robinson's May. they don't do that here"

my markdown is usually 1/2 the asking price. same time, ask for extra little items they can add w/o extra charges. i bargain my first brand new car in 94. it was a 95 lexus. i knocked down $ 7000 from the dealer's price. original was $ 42,000 down to $ 35,000. i'm sure some people can bargain more than me. i thought $ 7000 was good. i was only 21 at that time.

When throwing figures back and forth, never accept to their terms. You should always make the final offer.

There was an announcement yesterday on the local Kansas City news
that, due to the state of the economy, most companies are accepting
"offers" in order to keep sales high.
