Haggling abroad

[original PM]

how much time and effort are you willing to put in to save a quid or two?

you will probably find it is more than the time and effort to earn it.

Haggling in the underground market at Connaught place in Delhi is fun / nightmare.

"Some" faces attract (actual price x 10) as default price.

Having a nightmare travelling with the other half who is willing to simply handover the first price requested. Currently asked for about a tenner for 4 postcards and stamps in T'gypt until I stepped in with a "whoaaaaaa!!!"

Anyone had any nightmarish tales?

Five dorrar can go a long way if you're willing to haggle.

I'd have expected a camel or two at the very least.

If he's trying to get rid of his wife, why does he want another camel?
