What is the meaning of this exclamation alone?

> ふざけずに！

I know that ふざける means to kid - to play and that ずに means without, so it could
be "without kidding" but it doesn't sound right to me.

ふざけずに! what is the meaning of this exclamation?
It's an indirect negative imperative. A stereotypical example:

> A: いや、やっぱりいりません。
>
> B: そんな固いこと言わずに。もうちびっとわしが負けたらどうです?
>
> A: Nah, actually I don't need it.
>
> B: Aw, don't be like that. How about I cut the price a little bit more?
