뜻
A low cost for an item.
문화적 배경
In Dhaka, areas like Gawsia and New Market are famous for 'sasta dor'. Bargaining is an art form here; if you don't ask for a 'sasta dor', you are expected to pay the 'tourist price'. Kolkata's Gariahat and Hatibagan markets are the hubs for 'sasta dor'. The phrase 'Sasta gonda' is more common here to describe cheap, everyday items. In weekly rural markets (Haats), 'sasta dor' is determined by the harvest. If there's a bumper crop of potatoes, the 'sasta dor' can be heartbreaking for farmers but great for city dwellers. With the rise of e-commerce (Daraz, Amazon), 'sasta dor' is now often replaced by the English word 'Offer' or 'Discount' in urban slang.
Bargaining Rule
When a seller gives a price, always ask for a 'sasta dor' by offering 50% of their price first.
Quality Check
Remember the proverb 'Sastar tin obostha'. Always check the product carefully if the price is too low.

Formal Alternative
In a professional email, use 'সাশ্রয়ী মূল্য' (Sashroyi mullo) instead of 'sasta dor'.
Social Status
Rich people in Bengal often avoid using the word 'sasta' as it sounds 'low-class' to them; they prefer 'reasonable'.
