The "special friend" price

How it works

In the souks, the first price quoted is often 5 to 10 times the real price. The seller will call you "friend" and offer you tea. It is all part of the negotiation.

Field advice

Start by offering 20-30% of the asking price. Be ready to walk away -- it's the best negotiation technique.
