Fixed Price!


Fixed Price!

A sign on a road-side stall selling clothes in the busy market of Karol Bagh, Delhi. While such signs are common-place in shops all over India, in very few places, such as this particular shop, are the prices really non-negotiable. However, be wary while shopping in the rest of Karol Bagh. At most shops you can bargain down prices to 33% of the originally quoted ones.
