OKAY. .......lets see here umm ..me? im a huge! bargainer....or at least i find good bargains .......an example would be when im shopping for clothes for me.......i bring with me 50$(it can b any price) and is i c sumthing i like for that amount like a shirt and then i think of what would look rely good with the shirt and i would go and buy an outfit for 50$ that looks pretty similar to the outfit i picked out when i saw the shirt but i buy a different shirt so the look is similar but @ a good price!ummm if u go 2 a swap meet then u look at items u want and lets say the item is 10$, then when the salesperson isnt looking pull out 6$ and go up to the sales person and ask him if u can buy it for siz dollars bcuz thats all u hav left!...im not sure if this iz exactly as u wanted but i hope ive helped:)
p.s.the reason why i say to pull out the six dollars when the person that is selling the item isnt looing because then hell know u hav more money on u if he sees u pull out a wallet and carefully count out the money then he knows ur lying about how much money u hav....i know its bad 2 lie but hey......how many times do u think that guy lied 2 sell sumthing?

There are many books about negotiation. The key element is time: Who needs to close the deal first?
The person who does is probably going to suffer the most in the deal. The classic example is going to the car salesman the last day of the month. He wants the sale to close that day, so that he can get his commission check. On the other hand, if you've just wrecked your car, you need to buy today, and he's going get what he can from you.
Figure out a: what the item is worth, and b: how much you are willing to pay for it. You must be strong. If the guy goes above your maximum price, you must be willing to walk away from the deal.
Do your research. Look on ebay or craigslist for the going prices, then see if he will take 10% off that price.
Good luck!

Know in your mind what your top price is then as the old saying gos show them the money. Its very hard to let a sure sale walk away.

Ask for a price then quote half of its price then work an agreeable price from that point. ;-)
