Good Video Depicting Common Adversarial Tactics in Zero-Sum Negotiation

This good short negotiation video on Vimeo is produced at the University of North Carolina and depicts an automobile sale negotiation.

It depicts some adversarial tactics suited for zero sum negotiation about price.
For example, walking away from the table, keeping the other party waiting, adding a new demand late in negotiation, asking the other party's bottom line: "How much are you willing to pay?" And use of a team with a "Good cop, bad cop" (sales person "checks with manager").
