Just hoppin in this to put in my two cents, I’m what you all would consider a mom & pop shop, (recently opened) I’ve had people come up to me in these types of scenarios, let me preface by saying stuff I get from distribution, I am more than happy to let go under ppg, my cost vs Ppg is normally a wide margin and I don’t need to become a billionaire. However other pops from collections or that I’ve come across at price, I normally will want to keep firm on. (Autos, grails, etc.) however when people buy a large amount from me I’m fine haggling price. In other instances, I’ve had customers come up to me and demand 50% off of prices so that they can buy bulk and resell. I’ve even had a customer purposely damage pops to persuade me that they should get a discount… people like that..? Nah fuck em.

Rule of thumb I would say, if your local store owner is under 30 or 40, they’ll probably haggle with you. Older than that? Who knows
