Signification
Stating that something is cheap.
Contexte culturel
In places like the Dezerter Bazaar in Tbilisi, 'დაბალი ფასი' is often a starting point for a conversation. Sellers might offer a lower price if you buy in bulk (e.g., 5kg of tomatoes). Georgians sometimes give a 'დაბალი ფასი' to foreigners as a gesture of hospitality, though the opposite can also happen in tourist traps! In modern Georgian supermarkets like 'Carrefour' or 'Nikora', 'დაბალი ფასი' is used in branding to compete with traditional markets. In the booming real estate market of Batumi, 'დაბალი ფასი' is a common hook in advertisements aimed at international investors.
The 'At' Rule
Always use 'დაბალ ფასად' when you want to say you bought something *at* a low price.
Avoid 'Small'
Never say 'პატარა ფასი'. It sounds very unnatural to native speakers.

Complimenting Sellers
Saying 'რა დაბალი ფასია!' is a great way to build rapport with a market seller before asking for an even bigger discount.
Bargaining
In Georgia, if a price is already 'დაბალი', don't push too hard for more discounts, as it might be seen as disrespectful to the seller's livelihood.
