Much like New Delhi's Palka Bazaar. They'll come down from 900 to 75 in merely 10 seconds if you start walking away.
i have never been to India, but i went to Tunisia...
the "souk" is an awfull place. Sometimes it takes you up to 20min to get rid of some merchand... they take you by the hand to go to their store, try to sell you 15 things at the same time, and even say that you can pay in euros instead of dinars (but of course, if the price is 20dinars, they will take 20 euros...)
And everytime you really want something, you always have to bargain a lot because they always try to fool you... anyway, i bet that even when you think you got a deal, you are still fooled ...
Sometimes you really have to buy something to get some peace
In some town, there was a store with posters saying "no bargain here" (this has toi be the only one in the whole country)... we stayed the whole freetime we had in there in order to have some peace
Otherwise, i saw some great places over there... but choosing this destination for our senior class trip wasnt a good idea... it was all about the touristics places/attarctions. Not what i prefer when i travel.
I liked the trip i made to Italy the previous year (aslo with school) a lot better.
