Some people feel obligated to haggle no matter what the circumstances are.
Many years ago I had a 8N ford with a Wagner Loader setting on my place that was in excellent condition but I didn’t use it very much because I had several bigger tractors and a Farmall Cub That I mowed with.
Short story long: one Sunday afternoon 2 guys in a pickup pulled in my driveway and told me they worked with a guy I knew and he had told them that I might possibly sell the 8N as I didn’t use it much anymore. I told them I would take $700 CASH for it.
One guy then told me there was a ”really nice one” in the paper for $350. I told him well I guess if you can buy a better tractor for less money you would be smart to buy it.
He then tried to haggle price, I told him my price is firm I don’t really care if I sell it or not, if I really needed to sell it, you would see an ad in the paper next to the “really nice one” that is for sale, so they left and I thought that was the end of the story.
The next afternoon I got home from work and was setting at the table having a cup of coffee when those 2 guys pulled in the driveway pulling a trailer, I laughed and told the wife I guess the price is right after all.
