<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dollar1948, post: 811690, member: 17239&quot;]A few things here.</p><p>The coin dealer here, and anyone that can defend his actions, (like the individuals within the comments section of the attached link) is an underhanded piece of crap. Plain and simple. I don&#039;t care if he did this to an 80 year old senior citizen or a 30 year old obnoxious customer, same labelling applies</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The old lady should have picked up her pieces and walked away after the dealer refused to provide her any appraisal amount. Her intent was to get an appraisal, and (hopefully) take it to another dealer for another appraisal as a saftey check.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ve got my fingers crossed that the old lady saw the light and walked away. You can be sure of one thing, the news of this episode must have spread like wildfire within the facility so its my hope that this dealers reputation probably has been tarnished in the eyes of his collegues, and/or other consumers at the show.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Its episodes like that is why I am always sceptical about dealers I do not know. Its a shame, because its an area that could use a whole new publicity makeover.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With new dealers I want to test at shows (or stores), I usually bring a better coin I have, and ask them if they would be interesting in purchasing it. If they low ball me to a large extent, I move on and act stupid to the next guy until I find someone on the level, and then I&#039;ll buy from them. I dont care if his prices may be a little more than the crook dealer&#039;s. He earned my respect. Sorry if I waisted the other dealers time, but thats the price to pay, for being an idiot in my eyes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
