    Polish and most eastern European people do not haggle. They will pay the asking price if buying and will expect the selling price when selling.

    Not all of them though, a lad offered me €500 for a car I was asking €700 for, and it was priced to sell as per the add, no haggling. He got quite p1ssed off and almost aggressive when I refused his offer, in the end I had to tell him to get f'd with his €500.

    The thread title has reminded me of a time I took the mick out of my brother who was selling a Mondeo. I dug up the old emails below to show how it went, but in the meantime he was ringing me asking me what did I think as the requests seemed so strange. I just kept telling him to see it as a sale and keep answering any request.

    Hello sir, my name is Ahmed and I would like to enquire about your car. The price seems very good sir, but I need to know if your car can take supersize drinks cups. The reason I ask sir, is that I am on the road travelling all day and need a big cup holder. If this can be done sir then I would like to see your car as possible soon, before you have sold it on.

    Thank you sir and may God bless you.

    Thank you for your reply sir. The cups I use are 9 cms in width, would
    these fit?
    Also, what part of the country are you in, I am living in Santry,
    Dublin. What time can I see the car?

    Thank you again sir and may god bless you.
