[QUOTE="JCro57, post: 3266467, member: 92083"]I was in a coin shop recently, and a couple kids (maybe late teens or very early 20s) who looked like thugs asked to sell their PCGS slabbed 3/4 oz. gold bullion coins. The kids didn't know it was not a full ounce, didn't know if they were foreign or American coins, and didn't know how to get the coins out of the slab. The dealer did not ask them a single question (e.g. how did you acquire these, whose they were before you acquired them, etc.). Clearly, these items did not belong to these kids but the dealer bought them anyway. The dealer did, however, get a copy of the kid's license and bought them for 10% below spot. As a dealer or a buyer, do you feel the dealer acted responsibly by not asking questions about how they acquired them when they were probably acquired under questionable circumstances?[/QUOTE]
