The #1 bargaining (AKA BSing) tactic he will probably use is....

"equipment in size X is pretty common, I've got tons of inventory...so I'll offer you this BS price"

Either that or:

"equipment in size X is not very popular. Very few people want size X...so I'll offer you this BS price."
on that note, go scout the store before you drag your gear in. try to get an idea of their inventory, it may give you leverage if you have what they need.
