At a garage sale, it’s at least expected, since you’re literally talking to the person who made up the prices and can decide what or what not to accept for each item.
The only real rule is “nobody is desperate at 7:05am, buddy, you’re not getting the hardly-used mountain bike for $1 just because you want a deal. Come back just before they shut down and THEN try to score a deal on anything that’s left.”
Working as a cashier in a grocery store come through my line with a watermelon. He said “C’mon, man. Be cool. Give me a discount on this.” I just sort of laughed and said I couldn’t change the price.
If I worked retail, I would definitely do this. Hell, you don’t have to work retail… just throw a garage sale and wait.
