So being raised in the US and having never really been to a third world country where negotiating takes places I suck at it.
However I need to learn this sorcery as I've seen it save people alot of money, so recently I've looked at a used lexus and I'm familiar with cars and I've found issues with the car, now I need to know how to negotiate this car, he's priced it at $3500, when I asked him how much is he looking to sell the car for he on his own said "but I'll sell it for $3200".
Later I came to look at the car, the body and bumper have scratches/scuffs all around, some are easily visible. The gaskets in the engine bay are leaking, valve cover gasket at the least, I saw two more that leaked as well but I have no clue what they were. The car drove fine and when I checked it's computer, nothing came up as bad, all the drive cycles passed without issue.
I have a strong feeling I can negotiate this guy, to at least $2500. As he was just handed down an SUV from his kids.
