This is my experience in Switzerland with generally polite population - set an exact price (without that 'firm' wording though), and we got like 10 generic questions what is our lowest price, or people offering 50% or below. Suffice to say the one reasonable person got that product.
This seems like inexperience on our side and naive expectation for more reasonable approach, but it really felt borderline rude.
- dazc 7y agoThe people asking what's the lowest price and such and most likely to be time-wasters. This applies to all transactions, I find. Of course, there are cultures where haggling is the norm so, in these cases, it's best to start with an artificially high price which enables you to keep making concessions until you reach the price you wanted anyways.
