I usually don't like following my mum to market because of this bargaining thing, the way she'll price things especially meat down makes me bewildered |

My mum. Hmm She would price goods , I would be shocked I would look the seller with fear to read his/her reaction. It's how my mum would leave me with one of her customers' shop and go price stuff for almost 3 hours. Mostly on Sundays. It's not funny. |

Your mum really tried. If you know how these sellers deal with men and someone who doesn't know about these products, you won't pity any seller. They will collect the money back from someone who doesn't know how to price goods like me. I can't forget my experience buying clothes in Ogunpa Ibadan. This man friendly disposition was something else but it pained me to realise eventually that I paid double for the actual price. Some of them can even buy you malt esp. in Gbagi if you want to buy clothes. Don't fall for it. |

Beebah2000: It was a way of price control then in those days because Sellers knew market women (who were predominantly buyers then) would never take face value price but would always get a bargain hence Sellers try as much as possible to cut down their cost such as purchase price, transport cost etc. Have you seen where some Sellers with large goods are bargaining transportation? It's usually interesting. Also don't forget that some of our mothers also sell things or know the price at source and would have calculated the transport and profit margin before bargaining. N.B No Seller ever sell at a loss but would always call high price and get away with it especially with those that can't bargain. But this administration has destroyed everything as the economy is on free fall 1 Like 1 Share |

My grandma will always follow me when ever I want to grand casava just to price it herself. As old as I was then I will be pushing the barrow she will be walking behind me and everybody in the street will be looking at us. If we gets there, she will just walk straight to the owner not minding if is my turn or not untie the head of her wrapper bring out the amount she wants to pay and put in the person's hand vom she will go. They will now start runing after her shouting mama mama cos she have given them like 1/5 of the actual price. Shame no go allow me do like I no wetin them dey do. I go just go one corner go sedon. 2 Likes |

fattprince:Bro we are on this together, as the only boy if the family, o follow my mum to the market always so I can help with carrying some of the things she bought, that pricing thing takes the whole day, now it is part of me unconsciously as I price like say tomorrow no dey as per say person dey manage... I price banana one day the seller ask shey na woman send me as I dey price like woman. kunleiky:I also prefer staying in a customer's shop and watch over the one she already purchased while she goes on to buy others, but those waiting periods can be boring as there was no phone then, you just stare at every passer by but it's better than waking about different shops trying to get the cheapest bargain... 2 Likes |

obembet: My mum doesn't price that much , she's just an average "pricer" , she can price from 10k to 7k and pay but you see my aunty , that woman can price. I once went with her to the market and the seller started with a price of 1500 and my aunt just said " shey ko gba 200 ni ?" , I first took a step back thinking the man may suddenly attack us , how do you go from 1500 to 200 , that woman is heartless |

InvertedHammer: Exactly. My offspring is getting to understand this fact. Now practising the "bargain and walk away to be called back" and the "first buyer in the morning" techniques. Used to complain that I was hard on the sellers. |

Pkkelly:Yeah. That's true though. Made me remember one man selling meat. He was smiling when I came to him but was frowning when I left. He even said he was happy because I looked like someone that doesn't know how to buy until I shocked him. I can't blame him though because my Uncle asked me to buy #3000 meat. I bought #1200, #800 and #700 making #2700 but my Uncle saw only the #1200 and was complaining that he didn't know it will be that much that he wouldn't have but upto that amount. He was confused when he saw the rest. Yeah, he lives abroad with his wife and come home occasionally. Before you people will come for my head that I'm lying, this like 9-10 years ago so it's not now that I will finish #3k meat only me. Even then when he said #3000 meat I thought we were going to have like 5-7 guests for like 3 days. Because it was just the 2 of us. I no even carry mind go say he no Sabi how plenty the meat go be. 1 Like |

lorhema:I do bargain and walk away but I don't do first buyer. Even when I walk away if I have the money I don't go to another shop. So if he doesn't call me back I just go and pass another route and buy it and sometimes I guilt trip by saying you Sha don GBA me las las |
