Need some haggle help quickly

Need some haggle help quickly, as i am going to the shopping centre tomorrow. I basicly want to haggle for some headphone which are 12 pounds and some converses which are 35.00 pounds. So any advice and tips? The shopping centre is Lakside

thanks

ask them what thier very best deal is then shop around other shops and the likes, maybe have some internet prices at hand and say you would rather buy with them, is there anything they could do to sweeten the deal, like beat the price or give a few extra's etc, maybe with the headphones buy something else and haggle the headphones as a freebie with say a cd or something as you would like some headphones as your neighbours always complaining at the volume or something.

oh and be freindly have a little chat wiht them first ask thier name etc, and be cheeky with saying how much you want to pay then ask what thier best deal they could offer is, and be happy for them to wait and check with managers and stock buying prices etc.

I found the headphones for a low price of 7.37. Should i bring that up. I will leave out that posting is £5.99 a total of £14.29. What do you think? hehe

are these in the same shop? no harm in asking if they do a discount for buying the two together.. smaller shops may have more success.

Hope you did well - always remember that the worst thing they can do when you try haggling is say no, and it always best to be prepared to walk away! In some countries walking away alone brings them scrabbling after you and a big discount, and it even works here sometimes!
