<p>[QUOTE="Indianhead65, post: 413880, member: 103422"]Theres been a few instances here where I live (northeast) thats I've run into rude coin dealers. I'm not in the habit of buying from coin dealers who set up at farmers markets but there was one I ran across at a very popular farmers market near Lancaster, PA. He had a fairly large table inside one of the buildings there and he had alot of Morgan aand Peace Dollars, Prez Dollars and Statehood Quarters which people were just flocking at the table to get to for some reason. He also had a small section of the table devoted to some gold coins in the case and some Half Dimes that I was interested in. After the crowd cleared out I waited there for him to walk over to me, he looked my way and walked the other way and picked up his sandwich and began eating. I guess he must have made a killing already on Statehood Quarters to ignore my interest in some gold. Ive had a few other similar experiences at coin shows back when I first started collecting. I believe this is why alot of online coin shops do well, you dont have to put up with the hassle of the "personal" confrontation not to mention the dealers attitude.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
