<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 343241, member: 11521&quot;]I don&#039;t think the teller did anything legally wrong by accepting the silver at her window and later buying it for herself. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><b>BUT</b></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If that dealer is an ANA memeber dealer he is in violation of the ANA&#039;s Code of Ethics for member dealers. The COE for member dealers states (in part):</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>As an ANA member dealer, I agree to comply with the following principles: </i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>. . . </i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>To purchase and sell numismatic items at prices commensurate with a reasonable return to the seller and for a reasonable return on my investment with regards to the prevailing rate. </i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>. . . </i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>Any violation of this code will be grounds for expulsion from the American Numismatic Association.</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If the teller could tell you who the dealer is it would be very simple to find out if he is a member of the ANA. If he is an ANA member I would suggest to the teller that she immediately report him for unethical behavior. Then he will have to decide if $440 (the amount he ripped the teller off) is worth losing his ANA membership.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
