<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Southpawdon, post: 4108650, member: 101593&quot;]I have been doing card shows since 1992 and am always amazed by the question.&nbsp; Since I enjoy the bargaining process I do one of a few things. (Remember that I am talking about face to face which is vastly different from internet selling)&nbsp; First, depending upon how I read the person I might, for $100 item, say $120.&nbsp; I would hope that would lead to some conversation leading to a realization that the listed $100 was a bargain or at least reasonable.&nbsp; Next approach would be to throw the question back at them saying &quot;What is your best offer&quot;.&nbsp; This can lead down many paths...hopefully one where a reasonable compromise is reached.&nbsp; After all, the goal is to make the sale at a price you can live with.&nbsp; Both of these approaches are fun and hopefully either engages the prospect or quickly identifies those with no true interest or those that want wholesale or less pricing.&nbsp; So, I have fun with the question and enjoy the banter...a sale makes it even more rewarding.&nbsp; Internet sales are tougher because you can never put on paper your intent or expressions, etc.&nbsp; Not sure what to do then, but I always try to get their offer first...first to say price loses!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
