Una manera fácil de comprar un sari en India es en el bazar. Todo bazar tiene su pequeña y caótica tienda de saris con varias clientas comprando. Tienen a su disposición unos bancos de madera para sentarse ya que comprar un sari lleva cierto tiempo. Por lo general el vendedor te muestra varios saris abriéndolos de sus paquetes (ver mas aquí) También está el asunto del regateo. El precio inicial que te dicen no es por lejos el precio real y debes discutir un buen rato hasta llegar a un precio apropiado.
Los beneficios de comprar el sari en un bazar es que la tienda es fácil de encontrar pero es también el lugar más propenso a que nos engañen con el precio y la calidad del mismo.
Luego de la compra debemos mandar coser la pequeña blusa (ver aquí) Seguramente en el mismo bazar hay un "tailor" o sea un sastre que la coserá en un par de días si somos convincentes. Si el sari que compramos no trae la pequeña pieza de tela para hacer la blusa entonces podemos comprar una ya hecha (ready made blouse) aunque estas no son tan fáciles de encontrar y no todos los bazares las venden. Así que es importante asegurarse si el sari que estamos comprando trae esta pieza de tela o no y si venden blusas ya hechas en ese bazar o no.
Luego de todo esto podemos aprovechar el bazar para comprar algunas pulseras de colores que combinen con el color de nuestro sari, ya que un sari sin pulseras es un sari "desnudo" :)

An easy way to buy a saree in India is in the bazaar. Each bazaar has its small saree shop, a chaotic store with various clients choosing sarees. Usually there are wooden benches to sit because to buy a saree takes time. Usually the salesman shows you several sarees by opening them from their packages (see more here) and you have to bargaing the price too. The initial price they tell you is not by far the actual price and you should discuss a good time to reach an appropriate price.

The benefits of buying the sari in a bazaar is that the store is easy to find but is also the most prone to being deceived with the price and quality of it.
After the purchase we have to make our saree blouse to be sewing (see here) In the same bazaar surely there is a "tailor" who can sew it in a couple of days if we are convincing. If we buy a saree that does not bring the small piece of fabric for making the blouse then we can buy a ready made blouse. Even these are not as easy to find and not all bazaars sell them. So it's important to make sure if the saree we're buying brings this piece of fabric or not and whether they sell ready-made blouses in that bazaar or not.
After all this we can leverage the bazaar to buy some colourful bracelets matching with the colour of our sari, since a saree without bracelets is a "empty" sari :)

These shops are for the common people in India, Most of the middle income group and below are using such markets but these shops are having good price range of sarees. Means you can buy little bit expensive sarees to normal or cheap sarees too.
