<p>[QUOTE=&quot;clembo, post: 353258, member: 8033&quot;]Jeankay,</p><p><br /></p><p>Been reading some of your other thoughts since I first replied as well as others.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do manners count? YES! I don&#039;t go to a ton of shows but when I do there are a few dealers I will always stop at even if it&#039;s just to say hello. Why? because they&#039;ve always treated me with respect and I have shown them the same.</p><p>Pulling up at their table is like sitting down to chat with an old friend. I&#039;ll look and often buy but they don&#039;t push me because they know me. They know that if I see something I like I&#039;ll inquire. If I see something I&#039;m interested in I&#039;ll ask if they can get me a price while I do some wandering. They always do and I usually buy.</p><p><br /></p><p>There will be idiots too. Just avoid them as you have stated.</p><p>I went to a show about a year ago and this guy is hawking rolls of 2006 Cents and Nickels to me WHILE I&#039;M WITH ANOTHER DEALER.</p><p>When I was done I simply walked to his table and asked him why I would pay a premium for something I could get at a bank? I was nice but the idiot is watching me discuss Two Cen Pieces and Three Cent Silvers. You&#039;d think something might click in his brain that modern rolls was not what I was there for.</p><p><br /></p><p>Keep going and making friends. It pays off. Hey might even consider meeting another CT person there with more experience to help you along.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
