   Not really a middle eastern tradition

   Haggling is not really a foreign concept. I wasn't until the turn of the century that American's started setting non-negotiable prices. I believe it was a Woolworth five&dime store in Pa. that started it. Before then, Haggling was the way to determine the price of something.

   Haggling

   Of course, HaggleZone has been around for a couple of years now from NetMarket and never really took off, so I'm not sure why suddenly this other company thinks they've hit on something big. Plus, I think NetMarket has a bunch of patents (yeah, I know, don't laugh) on haggling over the internet... so, expect some lawsuits...

   there was IP litigation. yes our patent was amusing. yet if you understand what we actually created (WE, NOT being not netmarket/cendant but the inventors/developers of a genuine negotiation engine tecnology) the patent did not accurately represent what we actually created. good for me as i still imagine genuine (not silly consumer commerce) applications of the real technology.

   I would very much appreciate it if the inventor of this would contact me as I have first hand experience as an innovator and live version of Chester from 1995 having opened a haggling concept on Oxford Street England called Make us an Offer!
   I look forward to your earliest contact please.

   not an inventor of "haggleware" - was the algorithm person and lead development of "hagglezone" software and data models - might be an interesting conversation if we chat.
