<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1826644, member: 26302&quot;]I agree completely with BB4C. </p><p><br /></p><p>When buying, there are two different transactions. One with an expert and one with an amateur. If dealing with a dealer, it is HIS responsibility to know his stock, and any cherrypicking is normal. Now, I will say at times I will educate a dealer on the value of a coin, and be honest with him, but that is in my selfish best interest in building a relationship. Just last week I was honest and showed a dealer what a coin sold for at a recent auction. He sold it to me for a couple hundred under, and now trust me to look at other coins he is unsure of.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, if you are buying from a &quot;civilian&quot;, a classic little old lady scenario, you DO have a duty to not rip her off and treat her fairly. You know more than her.</p><p><br /></p><p>But, a pawn shop? Those guys totally screw the general public usually. I would have no compunction about cherrypicking them in the least.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
