It is simply a game that some are better at than others. Most things are only worth what someone is willing to pay. Most sellers start high, knowing that most buyers want to buy for less than the asking price in order to think they got a deal. This crazy stuff came in to play after bartering went out and money came in. Back when people bartered, they could make cleaner deals on both sides of the table. I am offended that businesses consider their money more important than my money. They hit us with all kinds of flemsy excuses like, "we have to make a profit". Duh, that is not my problem, nor should it be a valid reason that I pay more than the true value of a product or service. In order to make the levels of profit that many people want to make today, they have be liers on one side or the other. They will tell a seller that what they have is just not worth much. They turn around and sell that same item for much more. Is something wrong with that picture? We have just been programmed to accept the fact that almost everything has two prices. The vehicle market has been a master at this. A new car is "worth" about 20% more until you sign the papers and leave the lot. Immediately, that same brand new vehicle with 1 or 2 more miles on it has lost 1/5 of it's value. Consumers could change that to a more realistic number but they are misinformed, they get sucked in to the drama and emotions of marketing, they fall in love with the car saleman, etc. If you do not believe that there is an excess of profit in the car business, take a look at some of the monster buildings that are there to simply house the hucksters that sell them.
