In our previous city it was obvious that people thought you were well to do they should try and charge more. Kind of thought you made some money and than turned stupid.

Seems to work the same way here.

When we first arrived landscapers thought we would agree to pay 2-3x the going rate.

Just looked at them and said thank you and walked away. Found out what others were paying and got a recommendation and happy with the fellow we are using.

Same with other services.

Do not understand going to say a car dealership wanting to buy a car and having no idea about pricing.
