However, imagine a situation where the deal is already priced into the product accordingly, but the customer still feels it\u2019s not a deal even if it\u2019s priced exactly what they would have wanted in a normal circumstance.  A simple example would be buying something like a TV.  Imagine a $1500 at regular price where someone would try and convince the store to sell it to them for $1000.  If they agreed it would be an instant buy for them.  But change the situation where the store now just prices the product at $1500 and oddly enough there are many people who think it\u2019s not a great deal all of a sudden.<\/p>\n<p>This even happens for large purchases such as a home it seems.  Or example, many times people would price a home at the amount they would like to get.  Afterwards, someone with a particular budget would try to offer maybe $10,000 less to get a better where it would be an instant purchase.  However, imagine the sellers then simply pricing it $10,000 less right from the beginning in a priced to sell fashion.  Like there, many people will now not consider a deal because they can\u2019t negotiate it to be lower.  That is even with the fact that under normal circumstances they would have bought it at that price during negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m pretty sure it makes people feel powerful as if they outsmarted another in getting a better deal through negotiation.  But it does make you wonder whether or not this habit makes you lose a lot of deals as well where someone who just crunches the numbers will snatch them all up by the time you realize it was a great deal.  Sometimes it\u2019s better just to focus on the raw numbers per se versus your ego.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s not uncommon for a lot of people to try and haggle down a price of an item to try and get the best value for your dollar.
