    Advice ...never go to the market without Egyptian friend

  • @patrickbotros5807
    @patrickbotros5807 5 лет назад +263

    Cody, i am Egyptian from Canada,
    1) Never show to much that your interested in the item, show them that you dont mind leting it go.
    2) Negotiate the price you want only and go lower to have a margin of negotiation.
    3) If he resist about your offer show him the money your offering.
    4) If he keep resisting to much. Say thank you and leave right away telling them that you will try to find it somewhere else at your price and that you dont mind if you dont find it
    Most of the time they either wont let you leave the shop or they will let you leave and come to pick you up outside not to loos the sale

    I bought one outside the Mohammad Ali mosque for 8 LE which was about $1.15 at the time. But it didn't have glow in the dark paint. I would pay $3-5 max for it depending on how much I liked it. Partly because the shop he is in has more overhead than a street seller. At the current exchange rate, that would be like 50 to 80 LE. The exchange rate was like 7.15 LE to $1. Now it's like 16 LE to $1.

They just set the price so high because he's a tourist. You saw how he said he couldn't go any lower at first...before he dramatically decreased his price. They can go significantly lower but they don't because people assume they're getting a bargain when in actuality they are paying more then triple the standard cost to get these.

      Tip 5 pounds is cents in dollars. Why would you think people are scamming? Wherever you go in the world, tourists pay more, so don’t make your people look bad by saying this. I went there as a tourist and yes I probably paid few pounds more than the locals here and there but I did it willingly. People need to make a living and times are tough in Egypt.

    • @MrGeorgeadel

      i do appreciate your concern about other people but i was just demonstrating the prices a typical egyptian would pay in his daily life
      and i do think that is better for tourism in my country to give tourists a real life egyptian experince and that starts by paying as egyptians do
      and for u not to be worried about the tips 10 pounds a tip multiply by at least 10 tips a day that give him 100 pounds which is 1/20 the average monthly payment and that without the salary
      and one thing you didnt consider ,you didnt put in your minds the foreigners that live in egypt should they also pay more or what
