I can almost guarantee he&#039;ll say &quot;that is my best price&quot; which shuts down any negotiation. If you&#039;re really serious, bring in a Grey Sheet and use that to determine/compare price. I don&#039;t meet many dealers that aren&#039;t willing to follow what CDN says. I&#039;ve also used the line &quot;it looks closer to MS64 to me&quot; when they have a 65 price. If the dealer is holding firm, don&#039;t be afraid to walk. Your legs are the biggest and best tool you have as a customer. I&#039;ve walked away from many more coins than I&#039;ve bought....no matter how bad I wanted it. Remember, another similar coin will eventually find it&#039;s way to you someday. There&#039;s a LOT of tricks to negotiation, it takes experience and knowledge to take on a dealer who is a professional negotiator.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
