it is a shame that a lot of tourists consider bartering to be getting the cheapest lowest price for an item as possible but I think more seasoned travellers would barter for a reasonable price with consideration of the person they are bartering with is trying to make a profit .. yes they may start with an absurd price but it is up to me to bring it to a reasonable amount .. I too have witnessed tourists aggressively barter .. to tell you the truth if I really want something I couldnt be bothered wasting so much energy .. just a couple of prices and waallla its mine
