I am very well-traveled throughout the Middle East and North Africa where haggling over the price is the norm. This is fine with me because the merchant will SET A PRICE and then you work down from there. What I don't like is when the merchant just says "well how much are you willing to pay"?

And, this would even be acceptable to me in a street bazaar when buying a trinket but in bigger business it is freaking silly.
