When we go to Japan to purchase fish, we always bargain on the price of a fish. We always get prices and then bargain. After that we find another we really like and ask the price. Then if we really want both we bargain on a package deal. The more fish we put into the package the better price we get.

I have even bargained in Japan, when purchasing a 3 or 4 year old fish, to get "my pick" of a two year old for free..

Same holds true for buying from local dealers, package deals are the way to go. But you need to get the price on the fish first. Then the bargaining begins.
