<p>[QUOTE="bqcoins, post: 946783, member: 5036"]Littleton is out to make money for littleton, end of discussion. Whether or not their profit margins or their buying strategies are "dishonest" is not issue because as a private business they can buy at whatever prices they deem acceptable and sell at the same. If you do not like it then shop your wares elsewhere. What if littleton had said sorry we have a lot of those, not interested, would they be accused of dishonesty. In these times a lot of collectors are scaling back their buying and that hits places like littleton a bit. So they may need more profit for fewer items to continue at their expected profits for each quarter. I walked into a dealer the other day to sell/trade a coin and was turned down because he already had too many in stock. He offered to take it anyways for a greatly reduced price if I was desperate, which I was not, and I declined and we proceeded to have a great conversation and I even bought a nice medal. You can't take business deals to personally.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
