Hello fellow adults! Anybody else feel like almost every time you have to talk to someone to buy a thing, you're being swindled? If so how do you keep yourself from being taken advantage of? (kbin.social)

See title.

I constantly feel like any interaction with a sales person is just a big con. Whether it's a car, insurance, an apartment, internet, or a specialty item that I'm interested in but not an expert on. I always feel completely lost and uncomfortable and like no matter what decision I make I'm making the wrong one.

You already got the first step down, be proud of yourself that you are self aware when a sales person is selling you something. In the US it makes me sad seeing so many people not realize this and end up spending way more money than needed. I agree with you everything feels like a con anymore especially from big companies. Research, research, research before buying anything above $200+
