For some reasons I don't fully understand some people think a coin dealer is somehow not a retail salesman but an unquestionable sage free to insult or degrade his flock as he sees fit. Kinda like a cult leader without the 15 wives.

If there are x percent of unprofessional widget salesman there seem to be something like 4-5x coin dealers who act poorly and will even announce publicly on this website that if they feel offended they will plan on insulting you. Sounds childish and unprofessional to many here but indeed they do this. When all the elders die off many coin dealers left are going to be very shocked and surprised at how much this gen x crowd tolerates this behavior. Dude you are a coin dealer, not a judge or drug dealer. The attitude only costs you money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
