Regardless of the
agency's terms and conditions as to the
percentage demanded there is no harm in
trying to negotiate a lower one. After
all, you are entrusting them with a
large sum of money with the expectation
of receiving a first class vessel and
excellent service overall.
Try to be reasonable in such negotiation.
You can not really expect to pay a 10%
deposit, but to try and get 40% against
a demand for 50% is not out of the
question. |
