Haggling in Bali

3/31/2015

If something catches your eye in a little shop with an unmarked price, decide what you think it's worth to you, offer 50% of that first and gradually offer up in small increments until you get it at the price it's worth to you. No matter what you pay, it probably can be cheaper but seriously, most things are cheap and haggling is a sport in Bali so have fun with it.

Excerpt from one of the better posts I've seen on the Trip Advisor Bali Forum 

Rough Guide to Market prices and Fixed shops  

Watch the zeros in your money 1000 (10c) ,10 000 ($1) ,100 000rp ($10).

If you think it's a fair price, pay it. Don't squabble over small amounts ( an extra 10 000 rp is only $1 )

This is a guide to shopping at the markets though I have also included some of the department stores and popular shops in most areas, for those who love to shop and don’t know where to go.

I have compiled prices from fixed price market shops Rikas in Tuban, Tootsies in Sanur, Ketuts in Legian and Nyomans in Kuta. Some may charge 5000rp more than others. Some things were cheaper, some the same, some dearer.

I did not get to the Homeware shops this trip but if you go to Biarritz inSeminyak, It’s bright, airy, clean and 3 floors of fixed price. It’s sister shop is Geneva and they both have websites to look at their prices and goods. This will give you an idea of what to pay in the markets.

Lastly there are a couple of ladies that have plagiarised this shopping list, please note this is the ORIGINAL and there are severe penalties for doing so.
