<p>[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 4615192, member: 13307"]My all time favorite was a shop in the city (I believe it was primarily a pawn shop) where the guy was wearing about $50k in gold and was super, super friendly to me on the day I brought my attractive ex-gf. I came back the next day without her (but brought enough cash to make a significant purchase for the right deal) and when I politely refused to purchase a 5-coin set of polished dateless Buffalo Nickels for $25, he began screaming/cursing at me (honestly) telling me he was a millionaire and didn't need to deal with people like me who would buy a good deal he offered. He literally refused to show me any coins unless I agreed to buy that set (which I politely explained contained coins that could easily be purchased for less than a dollar total.) I walked out the door, laughed quietly to myself, and promised I was officially done with Chicago area coin purchases.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
