<p>[QUOTE="Jim M, post: 1400467, member: 4791"]I have many times asked people to move along at shows and not once has a dealer said anything negative to me about it. I wont ask somebody that is actually in the customer mode. but those that are standing and chatting, I have no problem at all saying excuse me, I want to look at this dealers coins. Cant remember a time when the person/people didnt move and allow me access. Maybe its the growl and the fact I always wear my Harley Tshirts when I go to shows? Making eye contact and motioning to the dealer is also a good tactic, let him know your interested but cant get in. If he has a set he will ask people to move and find a new chat area. Some dealers wont do this because they dont want to appear rude and lose a customer however. </p><p><br /></p><p>Great point though OP. I bet this would work.. hold up a wad of hundreds so the dealer can see it, then wave goodbye. : ) They are there to make money, not socialize for the most part. You should hear the chit chat after the shows about customers. </p><p><br /></p><p>Ya this guy thinks he is a big player, spends a few bucks here and there, thinks he is my best friend. etc....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
