<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Moen1305, post: 738704, member: 2544&quot;]I&#039;ve had a pretty good relationship with my local coin dealer for the past 10 years or so.&nbsp; He is now retiring and moving south in about a month and closing his shop and selling the building.&nbsp; This got me thinking about the next dealer I will be frequenting.&nbsp; There are a couple of shops a little further away that I sometimes use but I got the idea to get Bob&#039;s opinion on which one was best before he retired knowing that he is familiar with most of them. </p><p>Never have I heard someone so critically describe other members of their own trade with such vitriol and at the end refuse to recommend any of them.&nbsp; I had my own ideas anyway but this situation sort of reinforced my overall opinion of the people that own these coin shops.&nbsp; I&#039;ve never really liked them but found them a necessary evil and I have loved being able to buy directly from other collectors on eBay as I&#039;ve learned which ones to trust. </p><p>How is your local coin dealer if you have one and is your guy as negative and disparaging towards other deals as mine is/was?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
