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!

My wife buys and resells furniture a lot, and she haggles - usually for free delivery / pickup rather than price reduction. She always leaves a cushion she's willing to drop when selling, in case the buyer wants to haggle.
