I had the chance to negotiate the price of a gold chain at a shop, while on a business trip in the UNITED ARAB EMIRATES (UAE). I found the experience quite frustrating, yet exhilarating at the same time. My colleague, and translator, assisted me with the process, which helped me successfully attain my goal of purchasing a unique gold chain for my wife at a great price.
