There is a dance in the US that occurs between the 'buyer' and 'salesman'. The salesman repeatedly has to go seek answers or approval from a higher level management to any question or offer raised by the buyer. This alone takes several hours. Time is on their side, as they seek to wear you down. They constantly make you feel that they are doing you a favor to overcome their made up obstacles to completing the sale.
