Is bargaining the thing to do at Straw Market?

Are prices negotiable? If so, ridiculously so or just a bit in general?

Thanks

Yes, bargaining is necessary. Prices are negotiable. We felt the vendor prices were high so we would offer less than we were willing to pay so we would actually end up paying what we wanted to spend. Example: I bought two bracelets that the vendor wanted $20 each. I paid $10 for both. Basically decide how much you are willing to pay and be prepared to walk away.

 

Don't touch something unless you are really interested in the item as you will quickly receive the hard sell to buy the item.

Bargaining is expected at the Straw Market however bargaining in the stores is akin to trying to bargain at Macy's.
