Message:: [QUOTE="cncman, post: 521654, member: 17256"]I know my dealer makes a little extra with metal detector supplies and bullion. One thing I noticed some people say is that dealers are "ripping people off" or being "dishonest" by not disclosing to uninformed people what they are selling is worth and offering them 50% or less of the worth, or noticing a high grade or rare variety without paying that price. Get real, there is nothing wrong with that. An offer is just exactly that, an offer, the person doesn't have to sell for that and if they don't know what it is worth before they go in it is their fault if they get less for it. As far as I know no dealer holds a gun to someone to make them take less for their coins, they are always free to say no and walk out. Seriously, have any of you gone to buy a car and offered the dealer less than what it was worth? Less than what you would really pay for it? Were you being dishonest? Are you seriously telling me that if you were at a show looking through a box of dealers coins in 2x2's and saw a $10 43 jefferson that was really a 43/2 or a three legger for $50 you would tell the dealer, "hey I want to pay you alot more for that coin because you didn't catch that it was a variety? I seriously doubt it.[/QUOTE]
