I didn’t because I didn’t feel the need to. I don’t always like to haggle down prices and pay the cheapest price possible, especially if I like the shop owner and feel they are a good person. He also claimed he was giving a cheaper price than he asks in peak season.

I am more inclined to haggle down prices if there is an aggressive shop owner trying to sell me something and asks an outrageous price. In that case, I will haggle for sure haha

I just went in to the shop knowing that hand made Turkish rugs in the States usually cost double this price or more (or at least I think so) so I felt it was pretty fair.
