Does Anyone Negotiate Prices With These Vendors?

Point well taken, but I will keep guessing - from a purely mystery loving sort of way.

Don't forget there are groomers at PetSmart up to the task!

 
Heh, when I first started ordering from the Serbs, I tried to negotiate a deal with Pink to price match Dusko. For whatever reasons Pink didn't

like this and politely asked me to order elsewhere. I don't think she was mad, just more of a reputation type thing in her mind. It wasn't a big deal to me, either. I just continued to order from D. Same product so why care?

 
I had a source actually do that for me . I requested a certain brand & he didn't have that brand but he knew another supplier, The price he wanted was way to high & he worked to get the price down lower for me.

 
Somehow I just have to negotiate with vendors or else I feel I'm really getting ripped off. I can handle it when they say no but at least I have the satisfaction of  giving it a shot. Of course you want it to be a civil type negotiation and you have to know how to negotiate in the first place.No room for getting your ego bruised! Feelings.....nothing more than feelings...........!

 
I agree most want  our business in the future which is what the vendor said to me.

 
I don't know if this has been brought up yet but if one sy vendor has it yet it is not listed in the others just ask and more likely than not they will have it , as they are all connected(closely connected) so if you are used to ordering from 1 yet another site has an interesting product, ask and you shall receive.

 
I've successfully negotiated prices with several vendors on here. Also I have been able to get half orders from a couple vendors along with free shipping and sometimes I've negotiated free upgrades to overnight shipping with 2ND Day purchase. Never hurts to try - I'm fairly new to this but since day one I've tried negotiating with every vendor. I usually get the free shipping but sometimes have managed to receive discounts straight up - nothing big but every penny counts. 

 
I just finished negotiating prices with one of the best vendors on this board... Most of the time being polite and straight up with what u want and carry through with your purchase is all it takes to keep you in the loop.

 
I have - not with IOPS (one experience - outstanding order) but if you're a repeat and know how to use the gift of words but always do them well - it doesn't ask for a "discount"

So what good is that if you don't get your stuff. You get what you pay for. 

 
I too have never negotiated but I have had price reduction offers from my favorite vendor when my desired product was not in stock.  It was a healthy reduction and I was quite happy.  I have also had shipping upgrades and extras thrown in for being a loyal customer.  The vendors don't have to negotiate....We are a captive market and there is always somebody to step in our place should we decide to become difficult.  I also think based on the current news prices will probably start to go up and some already have. Yes it kinda sucks but it beats having to do really dumb things on a local level to get what we want.

 
@Tamara2121 I hate to say it but you probably got scammed.  99% of most internet sites are scams and will never send the product you desire.  Fortunately you have this awesome forum with great mods and great members.  Do a bunch of reading....then do some more and place an order.  If at all possible, donate to the site and the keys to the gate of the promise land will be handed over!! Good Luck and Happy Hunting.....This place is full of knowledgeable, friendly and great people that are willing to help but you have to be willing to do the reading :)  

 
I have a email vendor that I can talk down....... but he's so cheap allready it's kinda a insult were talking 15 cents fer 500mg pain o somas 12 cents for the regular pain o somas 

 
Never.

If the prices are too steep, I'll just keep looking for other vendor. I'm lucky, because I found a great vendor, with absolutely reasonable prices :)

 
I've had some success but only with larger orders, and vendors that I've been fairly loyal to. So all in all, hit & miss.

  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  3. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  8. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  10. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  11. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  13. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  15. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  16. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  17. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  18. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though

  20. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
