I say just go in with cash in hand that you're willing to spend. I bought a guitar for a buddy of mine once. Mom & pop shop had the guitar for $2499. I walked in with $2250 in crisp bills. Told the guy I really liked the guitar, then pulled out the cash and said "But I only have $2250 to spend, is there any chance you could work with me on the price?" He came back with "$2275 and it's yours"
If you make a fair offer and don't try to lowball you have a decent chance if the person is cool. Plus, whipping out a wad of cold hard cash in front of them can really help some people along. It never hurts to at least try.
