Excess Money After Negotiating with the Selling Agent

Question
If a person bought some items from the market for their family and negotiated with the seller for a very low price, like half a dinar, and took them for themselves, is this action permissible and is the money considered lawful?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: He has no right to take this money; because if the one who appointed him knew, he would not be pleased, and this is a type of betrayal, and God knows best.
