MetroCon Part 3 – Should You Haggle? The Sunday Showdown Debate
Hey Rad Chasers, welcome back! In Part 3 of our MetroCon adventure, things get real. We tackle a topic that sparks as much heat as a NERF gun brawl in a retro game store: haggling. Specifically, is it fair game to wring out deals on the last day of the con—when vendors might just want to dump inventory and head home? Or is expecting discounts just entitled?
What We Covered:
• The pros of haggling: Reddit tells stories of 15%+ discounts on Sundays when seller motivation is high .
• Negotiation strategy 101: Know the item’s fair value, don’t show desperation, start with a reasonable offer, but don’t lowball so hard it hurts — dipping below 25% of the asking price can be a real slap in the face  .
• Timing matters: Haggling works best when a seller is ready to depart—Sunday afternoon? Prime time for deals .
• Respect counts: Bargaining’s an art—especially with artists. Asking for a slight discount isn’t taboo, but don’t insult the craft or undercut someone whose work you value .
• A win-win mindset goes further than aggressive bargaining. Offering cash, being polite, and knowing what’s fair keeps the mood friendly and the con vibe alive .
What the Video Shows:
• Clips of us walking through the con on Sunday afternoon, trying our best not to look desperate while slipping in offers like “Let’s talk price?”
• Real reactions—vendor laughs, deal-making, and the weird feeling of asking “Can you knock off a few bucks?” after a day of browsing.
• My own confession: sometimes it feels like I deserve a deal because of timing (hello, last-day desperation!), but is that arrogant or just savvy collecting?
This video is a mix of convention hacks, real talk, and letting you decide where you stand on the haggling spectrum. Share your thoughts on it all in the comments—ever had a pushy haggle go too far? Or nailed a sneaky Sunday steal?
