[QUOTE="Blaubart, post: 1481426, member: 37498"]That's just what came to mind, since it means a little more if you're willing to put your money where your mouth is. I still might have intervened and informed them that the prices offered were far too low and recommend that they get a few quotes before deciding who they should sell to. Interesting. I have no "right"? I don't see this as being rights based. But since you brought it up, I do have the right to speak my mind on temporarily leased public property or even private property. They are within their "rights" to ask me to leave, and if I don't comply, they could have me cited for tresspassing. They are also within their "rights" to ask me to stop talking, but of course I would have no legal obligation to do so. I don't see this as a rights issue, but rather a moral and ethical dilemma of sorts. On one hand, it isn't considered polite to interrupt a sale, and it might even be against the policies of the event/store. On the other hand, a person educated on the matter is taking advantage of a person who is ignorant on the matter and it should be stopped. Why is that considered "rude", while the conduct of the buyer is acceptable? Because they paid for a table? Seems a little backwards to me. Again, this really only applies to extreme cases of abuse. If you're OK with extreme cases of abuse at coin shows or coin stores, then by all means, please continue...[/QUOTE]
