Message:: [QUOTE="JDS, post: 698108, member: 20515"]I got back from the show a couple of hours ago and have been looking over my purchases. Most of what I bought was pretty inexpensive, a lot of Kennedy proofs that I needed to fill an album. I did not bother haggling over price on the lower cost coins. When I was looking over some Franklins at another dealer's booth, he told me to not pay attention to the prices on the coins, and to just let him know what I was interested in. I ended up buying Franklins from 1960 to 1963 of both mint marks, as well as the Kennedy with Accented Hair. I asked what he could do, and I felt the discount he gave me was pretty good. Overall, I have to say that I was pretty happy with the prices. There was one dealer who was priced really high and I noticed that his booth wasn't getting a lot of attention. He was a nice guy and I felt sorry for him not getting more business, but maybe there's a reason for it. I had the feeling that it was a buyers market. The biggest single purchase that I made was the Kennedy with Accented Hair. The dealer gave it a grade of PR67 and I paid $30 for it.[/QUOTE]
