<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Allen, post: 2339947, member: 74249&quot;]This has been such a fabulous thread.&nbsp; I am still reading and re-reading posts.&nbsp; I am so glad to also read many from actual shop owners.&nbsp; I am not done going through all of it but wanted to let you all know I actually pulled my transaction today.&nbsp; I was looking for a nice double eagle for my wife for Valentines.&nbsp; My LCS proprietor had never seen me before and I was (as a study of human nature--I am a writer) scrutinized in a very fair manner.&nbsp; He was not forthcoming with conversation and had no idea what my intentions were until I actually purchased my metal (I took a fair amount of silver bullion in 10 oz bars and some Eagles) and dropped the name of the guy that referred me to him.&nbsp; I should have dropped the name immediately to break the ice but I&#039;m glad I didn&#039;t.&nbsp; I got an honest response and an honest treatment for someone he&#039;d never seen.&nbsp; I was talking up coins but he made it clear he was simply not in the mood to talk on our first meeting.&nbsp; He was kind and fair.&nbsp; I&#039;m a total newbie and I can&#039;t imagine what he deals with day to day.&nbsp; So, maybe a little more talk about coins next time...&nbsp; I LOVE coins, and bullion and I look forward to further business with him.&nbsp; Thanks again for all of the wonderful letters here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
