usually i buy from those boutiques in shopping centres which are fixed-price so i dont sha-jia. if the price is way out of my budget, i dont buy liao. -
sha jia means haggle, or bargain lor
Of course if your shoppin at those shoppin centres, that will be fixed price.... so i think TS is referring to those places that allow you to haggle, like bugis street, fep, or bangkok all these etc
Technic huh.... hmm....
Product: $300
- Dont appear to be too interested in the product in the beginning. They see you too gian, then might not cut some prices since you gian until ready to pay for it
- Once you see somethin you like, set a price that prepares you to start haggling ($250)
- Dont haggle immediately. Cannot walk in then start haggling
At least try first ma if it's clothes
- Now starts to be interested for a bit. You offer your price to the person, see if shes ok or not. Tone used is impt. Dont appear to be too desperate, but at the same time give her the feeling that if your given a good price you will buy, your a potential customer
- If she sets another price ($280), then you minus an amount from the price she sets ($270)
- If she says cannot, say a few more words to make her change her mind. If cannot, then use the price she sets ($280) (that is if your ok with it)
- If she says it's a deal, then good lor ($270)
No step by step technic, depends on situation.
What price should you start with? Depends on where your shoppin at. Bangkok, China, starts with 1/3 of the price first
Or you can buy more items and ask for lower prices.
Depends on the product your buying, then maybe point out some bad points. Sometimes they will auto lower price for you. If some shops are sellin the same product, then roughly the prices are the same and fixed but you may buy more and ask for lower prices....
I dont really use this: Another shop has a better price -
Oh! Sha Jia..discount lah. Now alot of goods fix price liao, how to sha jia? Sometime I sha jia until the cow came home and still get cheated, because other place sold more cheaper. I still prefer fix price, once and for all, no need to argue so much.Originally posted by huiz:ask for discounts.
