How to bargain

When I'm bored around Thamel, the touristic place of Kathmandu, I go to one shop and start to bargain with the seller. It's funny and I can get some practice in the craft of bargain. With the time I'm getting someo practice, so I have decided to let you some tips.

First, just for if one day you reach Kathmandu: Never buy in Thamel, and if you can avoid it, in KAthmandu, it's the expensive place of whole Nepal.

1- Go close to the shop, without show interest in the article. You are just looking.
2- Once that the seller comes and tells the price, say that you don't want to buy.
3- He will tell the fiast official price, lower than the first one, but you explain again that you don't wnat it.
4- The price starts to go down.
5- If he doesn't starts, you should do it. Start to go personally. Where are you from, whatever.
6- Explain that you now about what are you showing interest, that you know a lot about the theme. Eve nif isn't truth, but that you don't want top buy know.
7- He will down the price.
8- Explain that you don't want to buy now, maybe another day.
9- The price will go down again, and at that tiome you turn around going. He will down the price asa lot, and then you come back smiling. Here you can show interest without saying anything, he will down the price once and more, until reach the price that you think is good and say Ok. Another is just start to make offers.
10- You are foreigner, and he nepali. You are millionare. He just want take as more money as possible. They will win a lot of money anyway, usually the products doens't cost anything, aybe 50 rupees, and they sell them for hundreds. It's easy think that you are not paying anything for the product, but one nepali can eat one day in restaurants for 40 rupees. You will reach the limit of the price when he say NO straight away, tha means that you have reach the real price. Someitmes I got 60 percent of discount, but I never buy, just once I bought, getting 45 percent, but i think I could have get 60 easily. By my heart say that's wasenough.

There isone exception for the tenth rule. If you are the first customer of the day. Then you can ask for wahever you want. The nepali, and the Hindu, think on the day, not on the month or year. They just have to get food for the day. The think that if you are the first customer of the day and you don't buy anything, they wil not get anything that day.
