[QUOTE="rte, post: 16441170, member: 78199"]I've shared a story before. My local coin/bullion shop I just spent a few bucks at. In walks a couple looking to sell some coins, some silver. They didn't like the shops buy price and headed for the door. I said thanks to the shop owner and headed out myself...the couple was walking out to the parking lot by my parked car. I said hey there is a local coin club that meets first Tuesday of the month and they could find more information about what they have. The couple evidently came back in at some point (maybe after I left??) Talked to the shop owner. That was picked up a security camera and I was questioned about the interaction my next visit. You could tell the owner wasn't pleased. Asked if I approached them to buy and said it made them uncomfortable. My story was I told the couple about the local coin club and they could find out more information about what they had and value. Probably not the best choice of words, my talking gets me in a spot now and again. I didn't mean any ill Will to either party. The shop owner was still on the fence a bit, but has come around again. Either way, You will be on the short side of the discussion.[/QUOTE]
