Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
Products available from competitors would not be a bargaining chip for a salesperson, as it would not benefit their position in negotiations. The other options, such as price flexibility, training availability, extra services, and optional equipment, could all potentially benefit the salesperson's negotiating position.
