Ha. You can certainly try. For my part I’ve not negotiated as much as I fought irrational [1] or dark pattern charges [2]. Win some, lose some. Just a few examples: 1) salvage fee. As a youth I had very cheap car. The side panel was seamless with the top of the cab. A driver who pulled out too far into the street just backed up into me and damaged my 1/4 panel. Repair exceeded the “value” of the vehicle. Insurance says they will pay me up to the value of the car, minus salvage fee. Oh. What’s that? It’s the value _they_ would get for junking the car. Why are you entitled to this? Because when we pay the value of the car, we own it. Uh. No you don’t, because I didn’t sell it to you. Round-and-round. I’m one for two on that fight. 2) Square (the online credit card payment peeps) have a dark pattern. A button on the site will, without confirmation, instantly charge you some additional three percent of your receivables to deposit it instantly in your bank account. The button looks exactly like a bunch of other buttons you need to click. Off shore call center will not budge on this one.
