It pays to haggle

[ben24]

Just took out my spark plug out and seen that they are pretty shot , one was not even the right gap !

so went down to my local motor factors , £14+vat EACH !! thats £65.58 for the NGK laser platinum PFR6E-10 plugs , so i was like no way fella forget that i need them cheaper than that , he said lets see what i can do for u , 2 mins later £44.56 inc vat for all 4 = HAppY DaYS. saving of £20 = More HaPPY DayS

I hope they boost my cars BHP by ten fold !

:lolup:

Yeah lol, should have got standard ones.

Surprised they gave you a discount to be honest, did you get them at trade price or something?

asking if you can have them cheaper is hardly haggling! well done nevertheless.

Try and get the person down once you've asked for the best price.

Walking in saying hi...I'm not paying that, give it to me for less is hardly haggling.

IMO, haggling is negotiaing a lower price than the seller wants.

Sound expensive then

 

[bmh.01]

Yeh they're not the best, seem to remember renault will want about £15 a piece off you! Ebay is the cheapest place to get hold of a set i'd imagine, thats where I get most of mine from now.
