BargainA bargain would typically mean that a person has got a ’good deal’ on a particular purchase. It implies that the purchaser paid a price slightly lower than what he/she initially intended to pay. From the seller’s point of view, a profit was still made even though the goods were sold at a cheaper price. The main advantage is that when the customer feels he/she has got a good bargain from the deal, the chances of retuning to the same seller are much higher. A bargain thus benefits both the seller and buyer. Good bargains can be had at wholesale outlets as well as online auction sites. When a seller is anxious to get rid of a particular item, bargaining power lies with the customer. Bargains can be had on almost all kinds of goods, ranging from the smallest such as household and kitchen items to very large ones like vehicles and houses. While in some deals, only the buyer and seller is involved, others require the presence of a broker or a middleman. The broker, or middleman, usually researches the needs of a prospective buyer and then scouts for a seller to match the need. After the deal is closed, the broker is entitled to a commission, which is only fair, as the buyer would not have met the seller otherwise. Some common bargains include flight or cruise tickets and holiday packages. |
