Do you bargain?
I don't, I just hand in the money.
Really irritates me when I overhear people (usually Asian, meh) quarreling over the price when the salesperson already gave a 10% discount to them... |

Sometimes, only if I am in Hong Kong. Of course, in those not formal stores. But retail stores, I just go to each electronic/product store to compare prices and if they are giving anything for free. Everybody loves to get free stuff. In US, I don't really bargain because you can't really unless you buy a vehicle.

In India most of the shop keepers already add high % of profits considering that customers will bargain and if they dont than they suffer more.

Me too, I don't bargain. Although there are stores that will lower that price if they see that you're losing interest in an item that will be going on sale soon. My friend got a $140 camera bag for $40-$50 and a $90 tripod for $40.

I only bargain when I buy from street vendors or small boutiques
that you would find in malls. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain if you do get the discount.

Depends where i am in. If in HK or China, definitely bargain on street vendors and such. Other places, just pay and leave.
