    A trick to negotiating, do not rave about how beautiful the item is to the seller 😊. It is amazing though to see items hundreds of years old, in the U.S. There’s just not a lot of finds in antique shops that olde.

      And do not say that the price offered by the dealer is "cheap"....Billy had no where to go to get the price down after saying how cheap they were and what a good price they are ...!!!

      @Greg Appelgren
      My opinion exactly!! At that point the Brocanteur, as Ryan called him, already knows he's dealing with someone who wants it, plans to purchase it, especially now because Ryan loudly declared to Billy it was a good price, in front of the very shrewd "Brocanteur"!!! 🇺🇲

      Frenchman or as a classic Quebequois or even as a Parisian. Ah zut alors!!! Ah tebernac! Merci mon amis... and yet I am able to fool a french friend of mine for 4 years. One day he takes a call from his new wife to be and I hear his say in French Bonjours ma belle! So I said ah you speak French too.. oh he was angry... well specially that I said it in French....

    • @dancharron7098
      @dancharron7098 2 роки тому +1

      It's not that hard to switch from French to English. Moi je suis francophone! But I live amongst many English friends. As I can fully conversed in both languages at the same time. And best is I can do it as An Ontario

    Billie was waiting for his brocante shopping buddy to return. You guys make a great team looking for old antiques. Your enthusiasm needs to be dialed back a wee bit if you want to negotiate a deal however!🥴
    Billie’s knowledge of suitable, rare antiques is boundless. Love these trips❣️

    Lovely video again Ryan…..you have a lovely speaking voice when you’re not doing the cockney thing which you told me you picked from relatives….!
    Given you were brought up in France it’s great that you can switch so easily from one language to another and yes definitely better in my humble opinion to hear you speak in the lovely accent I heard you speak in the Brocante today…..!
    It’s also great to see you back helping Billy …….keep up the good work, your office is going to be a lovely place to work in !x 🙂

  • @lisahawes5329
    @lisahawes5329 2 роки тому +16

    I lived in France for many years, I think you could have negotiated much much better. But that’s just my humble opinion. Knowing how the french think and reply to the first interaction, a more in-depth conversation usually give the seller pause fir thought. It’s a dance in France, and they do realise anyone outside of their commune will pay more, much much more 😊

    • @hectorbrown656
      @hectorbrown656 2 роки тому

      Yes that is true , but in my opinion not only in France but everywhere worldwide.

  • @micah06v8
    @micah06v8 2 роки тому +1

    I agree with the others as far as the negotiating goes. Gasping and gawking and everything, he knows you have money to spend. The trick is to seem uninterested and be willing to walk away. You would be surprised how many times they will come chase you down for the price they just told you "no" over if they think you're going to walk away without buying anything.
    Something else that helps is if you bundle things together they're more likely to come down on the price.

  • @lozdyer1087
    @lozdyer1087 2 роки тому +2

    The only trick I use when negotiating (because I can’t do it) is being prepared to walk away. You need to decide if you want the item, how much you think it’s worth, and add on a bit for profit for the seller. If it’s meant to be you’ll get it, if it’s not then it’s because you didn’t really need it :)
    Love your vlogs, keep being you xx
    Ps you said to tell you what I liked in the broconte, well I can’t because I love everything vintage and I’d still be in there looking at stuff :) ;)

    Antique shopping envy. There is absolutely no where, where I live in Canada, to find antiques. I was watching someones vlog and they found a chandelier that was wood and length ways it was just what we are looking for. Sadly it was sold. It would probably been too heavy to ship to Canada. Although I have an antique Marble clock, mid 1800s made by Boxall in Brighton, very heavy, I won an online auction, had that shipped here. I love it when you go antique shopping.
