not if the item is overpriced. but a flea market hardly has any overpriced items so yes.

Nah, it can be fun. Until you get cheap!

It's thrifty to haggle at flea markets, and it's expected. That's just part of the fun. I don't think a person is being "cheap" to haggle at a flea market.

I dont think it is, they expect you to haggle with them. I cant wait till Monday, I am going to be haggling my ass off, at the Gypsy Caravan, LOL.

No!! It's expected to haggle at a flea market. Sellers mark up their items in anticipation of people looking to bargain-beg. Check out my tips for flea market shopping: http://www.helium.com/items/1072017-flea-market-shopping-guide Hope this helps!

As a former flea market "dealer", I think a certain level of "haggling" is definitely expected. Just don't go too far and insult the seller.

It's stupid NOT to.

Nothing wrong with trying to get the best deal possible.
-
Nah. It's part of the fun. Don't overdo.
-
NO, SMART.

I am a former Flea Market vendor ... I always expected the customers to want to "Haggle" a little ; so I had my prices adjusted to allow for the bargain hunters .. MOST vendors EXPECT "offers" etc ...

I don't think so. However it can be offensive depending on how you haggle. Don't say "I'll give you $5.00 for that thing and then proceed to find fault with it" That is a cultural way of doing business for some and very insulting. It is much more polite and you will get better co-operation if you say "would you take $5.00 for that?"
