<p>[QUOTE=&quot;illini420, post: 847360, member: 19423&quot;]Whenever I find a &quot;cherrypick&quot; from a dealer at a show or in a shop, I ask what the selling price is of the coin... then I pay that price w/o any attempt at negotiation.&nbsp; That way, I&#039;ve asked and then I&#039;ve paid exactly what they were asking and I have nothing to feel guilty about.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>On the other hand, if you &quot;pick&quot; a $100 coin and the dealer is asking $5 and then you offer them $3, then you should probably feel a little guilty, even though the dealer may take $3.&nbsp; Also, if you don&#039;t pay the full asking price, there&#039;s a shot the dealer will take a closer look at the coin before making the decision and may discover you&#039;re trying to rip him and you&#039;ll lose out.&nbsp; Paying the full asking price pretty much eliminates the chance the deal won&#039;t go through.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>All that said, if you deal with someone quite a bit and find an obvious pricing error, it should be disclosed.&nbsp; But picking through a bunch of stuff the dealer didn&#039;t take the time to sort themself is part of the fun of the hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
