With the higher exchange rate we found that they were starting a lot higher than they had in the good old days when half the asking price seemed good value. Last November we found if we started at 10% of the asking price (despite howls of protest) and worked up to about a quarter or less of the asking price, with a bit of patients and good humour, even though I'd have to suffer a few friendly hits on the back and squeals of "your too hard" we'd get it for a quarter of the asking price. One of the best method we had was to think of what we'd pay for it back at a cheap market in Australia and aim for something less than that.
