I used to work as a retail buyer, and these sort of tasks really annoy me.
There are no true buying/selling skills involved in getting a one off, tiny order from a retailer, or buying a single item at a knockdown price just because you've browbeaten some poor shopkeeper. True business is about establishing a relationship with a buyer/supplier and brokering a deal from of which both parties benefit to their satisfaction, and will sustain long term. I know they have to have a task which can be accomplished quickly and make good TV, but to make out that that is how things work in the real world is unrealistic. |

That's why it riles me when they're so rubbish. If you watched all the US and UK series you'd know what sort of tasks were coming up and what worked.
