<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 669502, member: 3726"]Well I kind of got the same response as you did when I posted about the same type thing. In my case my dealer listed a coin at one price and I bought it for that. When I bought it I did not realize how under-priced they had it. I went back a week later and asked about it - he said they screwed up. His comment to me was - "Well you will keep coming back as a customer". I have since on a couple of coins asked several times - are you sure about that price? In all cases they say yes - and this is before my discount. You are doing the same thing - and by this thread may have even got them a few more customers. Hats off to the MSP seller - who knows may the next time I am in the twin cities I will have time to visit them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think no matter which side makes the mistake they should take their lumps and make the deal - no complaining or whining. I have made the mistake of posting an incorrect bid, where it could have cost me hundreds of dollars - at no point did I try to withdraw the bid. Just crossed my toes and hope nobody got ridiculous. Now having said that - I would make allowances for some dealers and some transactions. I have less sympathy when dealing with ebay - I have seen several auctions where the seller skipped the transaction, took the negative, because they were too cheap to pay to set a reserve. Heck - even on DLRC if they accepted one of my offers I would expect them to live up to the deal. And then we get into cherry picking and apply the same type principle.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I am going to have to run down my local shop Saturday and see what they have them for - last time I remember looking the 63's were 1150. Going to have to check them out - less than a year ago that was what they were selling for(actually earlier this year). <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
