maybe it's a negotiation tactic/they want arguments to be able to offer less
Was this one of those deals where you negotiate by making them wince first and then coming in with an offer that alone wouldn't have succeeded but now looks peachy (really nice) compared to the wince-inducing proposal.
ask for more than $xyz and reject if they offer less than $xyz.
Just pay the initial asking price then?
Was it hard to negotiate/agree with them on the price?
They could still negotiate a price
I think merely seeing the haggle option would make the user understand it's just a suggested price nobody ever pays
This is probably a negotiating tactic. Ask for the world, compromise down to what you're actually looking for.
It's not a con to negotiate a price and agree to it with mutual consent.Anchoring a prospective customer of your labor to a high price is not a con. Nothing forces them to take the deal.Please don't be a jerk.
Because pricing on stuff like that is negotiable and they don't want people to have a starting point.
