How are they trading? He says his price, you break in half, he says the price again, etc., until you agree ... or not, that's how it goes!
I bargained for cheap Italian fins in Hurghada, we were already pretending to leave, the seller stopped us on the threshold, and then we drank tea and as a gift from him we received a mask with a snorkel, though Chinese. When I arrived home and found out how much us these fins, I understood why a friend, already when we left, made round eyes. After all, I was still a beginner then, I even came to the resort, without equipment, for the first time. And he has experience!
In general, bargain until you and the seller are exhausted, they love trading, if they don’t bargain, they lose interest in you.

Check out fixed price shops, Carrefour, Metro, Ragab if you don't like haggling. In general, the golden rule: the blacker the tan, the greater the discount))) take a look, read the article: http://sharmalsheikh.ru/%D1%88%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BC-%D1%8D% D0%BB%D1%8C-%D1%88%D0%B5%D0%B9%D1%85-%D0%B7%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%87%D0%BD%D1%8B% D0%B5-%D0%BC%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0/

We usually divide the price by 2, but it didn’t work out that way with fruits on the OLD Market, almost all sellers have the same price, they bought mangoes in April and December. In April at 2 dollars per kg, in December at 1.3 per kg. I do not advise you to buy oils and cosmetics in Egypt, the price is exorbitant for penny goods of dubious quality.

I think the main rule is this. You saw a thing in the shop, and bargain for it as you were told above, but don’t buy anything else in this shop, because if you bargain hard for one thing, the seller will still return his money for another thing that will be pushed to you more expensive.

I also had a process of knocking down prices from the seller. I saw a bright blouse with embroidery, my friend bought it for 20 pounds (it was 10 years ago), asked the seller, he immediately said that it costs 200 pounds, as a result, after a long trade, I Bought it for 30 pounds.

in Naama Bay, the price of a real purchase is 2-3 times lower than the requested one, at the Old Market - about 2, that's what you achieve, but once in a while you don’t have to, it was possible to buy 5-10 times cheaper, so I’m telling you exactly how much it’s not a pity , and then the art of compromise ....

And remember one simple rule.
If you named your price and the seller agreed to it, you need to redeem the goods.
They are very offended when they do not buy already bargained goods.

We tried to bargain, but to lose 5-10 times ... I don’t remember this)
Probably, I don’t know how to bargain) The price could not be brought down more than twice. Even when they left the shop. True, they were well inferior in price if we bought several things. For example, when they bought tunics (made of thin fabric, such as gauze), the seller asked for $5 each, as a result they bought 3 pieces for $10)
