<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 1511771, member: 36230&quot;]Yes.. I am well aware, and its NOTHING compared to what the average dealer does, especially B&amp;M. Take the crap the dealer below gave you and multiply it by 25-50 (maybe more... every day), then tell me who gets the short end of the stick.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And that might be the problem... you &quot;don&#039;t <u>think</u> so&quot; (as in you are making an assumption), but do you KNOW so? Have you ever been on the other side of the table/counter? Unless you have, you&#039;ve (probably) no idea of the nonsense some dealers must put up with day in and day out. Do you have any understanding of how ridiculous many collectors/buyers/private sellers really are today? Its probably safe to assume that this guy gets lots of lurkers.. people who think it okay for them to waste hours of his time then maybe spend a few dollars (if anything at all). It may be fun for a collector to spend hours browsing coins, but its not for the dealer catering to this and not making any money. While I cannot excuse his poor treatment of you, I can almost guarantee you that his acting like this is an acquired business sense. This is most likely not a hobby for him, so instead of jumping on the &quot;snob&quot; thing, try put yourself in his shoes. Had you made it very clear you were a serious, respectful buyer, his reaction may have been different. Even though it shouldn&#039;t be this way, showing the dealer first that you mean business and that you respect his/her time can go a long way towards having a positive experience.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
