The art of haggling has been slightly lost in the era of online shopping, but PriceWaiter is hoping to bring haggling back into the modern world. Designed as a plug-in for Chrome and Firefox, PriceWaiter lets users bid on various online stores. To make a bid, users just need to enter the amount they would like to pay, then just sit back and wait. The price offered by the buyer will then go out to PriceWaiter vendors, who can respond with a discounted price for the same item.
On top of offering considerable discounts, PriceWaiter will also offer newcomers $15 back for their first successfully negotiated order of $25 or more. This credit is being run as a limited time offer and will run until December 31st, 2018.
