Well, I've never liked the haggling part either, but given mark up and also realizing there is an actual cost, to the dealer, then marked up for retail, figure a number that you think is fair, and offer it. What can they say no? List an the alleged savings, well its all a game, but unless you are getting it for cost, its all retail anyway, so unless you have a connection for the employee discount or 10% above actual cost, you just do your best to get the lowest price.
