Done with ChatGPT Agent

What they did

Reddit user u/TRNC_NL wanted an LG OLED55C46LA TV listed at €1,129. They told ChatGPT agent to open the store's website chat and negotiate to €935 or less with shipping, staying polite and keeping the chat open. The agent bargained in Dutch with several staff members. It pointed to rival prices and an earlier offer, and turned down extra add-ons.

How it went

The author says the chat ended with a €939 price including delivery, plus an order link by email. That is €190 below the start, but €4 over the target.

Worth knowing

Commenters questioned whether the deal was really good, though the author valued local service and warranty. Compare the final offer with other sellers before using the order link.
