The all mighty dollar plays a key roll in nearly every transaction. Impulse works to the sellers advantage. No one wishes to boast to his peers of his acquisition if he paid slightly more than fair market value.

Bragging rights are instantly bestowed onto those who feel they received the better part of the deal, or if the lopsidedness of the deal took advantage of the other party's interests.

Setting the asking price slightly below the perceived value can often coax that potential buyer to jump at the bait. Set the hook, securing the deal.
