[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 723543, member: 2972"]I'm sorry, Mark, but you've not convinced me... That's kind of the point of the seller not offering first, to put the one doing the buying at a disadvantage. I think your nature of fair play (which I happen to share with you in most cases) is getting in the way of maximizing selling price. ;) Said another way, a lose-lose situation for the buyer is a win-win for the seller. Again, that's kind of the point -- to get the most out of the coin. If shopping around gets you to that point, so be it. Also, if the seller keeps his mouth shut about the prior offer, dealer #2 wouldn't know what to bid relative to dealer #1. Again, a win for the seller because he has a better feel for the true nature of the dealer and hasn't sacrificed his starting negotiating position by speaking first. So while I understand (and to a certain extent agree with) your logic, I just don't agree that implementing it will lead to the highest price for the seller....Mike[/QUOTE]
