“In a perfect world, everything is priced at the most reasonable amount a customer wants to pay and haggling is not necessary, but unfortunately, most of the time the sticker price on products are meant to maximize the profit of the seller…”

EVERYTHING is priced the way it should be. As an economist would say “Markets are efficient”. What does this mean?

If I sold a certain product that for too high a price, I wouldn’t get any business. There are always two parties involved in a transaction: the buyer and the seller. The buyer always has the options of saying “No”. Thus the seller always has to price his products at a fair price.
