What are some ways to haggle down a price say 10, 20, 30 more %?
When dealing with other companies, not bazaar I mean.
Do you have any go to lines to say?
Any books to recommend?

My immediate example is that I want to transport 22 pallets from Italy and I need it stored.

First guy asks 1450 euros and 0.2 per pallet/day for storage.
Other guy asks 1700 euros and 0.3 per pallet/day for storage.
I sent to 7 different companies already.
Can I use the prices someone else gave me to make the other guys lower the price? How best can I use this information to haggle?

What would you do?

only works if your vendors are hungry.

I can't count how many potential clients I cold dropped because they tried to haggle.

Mind I ask you from which country your from. As to know which culture I should try not to haggle.

Because my father teaches me that you should try to haggle as most ppl in bussiness do that here. I live in Lithuania btw

I'm in the US. I don't sell to the public though. I've noticed people will always try to haggle, businesses rarely do.

wierd, here it's the opposite, ppl don't haggle for prices in supermarkets, shops etc. unless u go to bazaar or something, but I haven't seen anyone haggling in bazaars either.
However in business everybody haggles maybe because everybody is in debt and staying afloat is hard, one medium-major mistake and ur done.

here businesses will get a bunch of quotes and usually take the cheapest quote as-is.

most of the businesses I deal with don't have a single owner though. If one person owns the business they're way more likely to try to haggle.

also most businesses I deal with aren't poor by any means. So they can afford to pay without haggling. And haggling can result in worse quality work. Businesses understand they get what they pay for and they don't want inferior work so they don't offer inferior pay.

>bunch of quotes
