The dealer is looking to buy, not hand out free advice. So if you walked in, threw a stack of ASEs on the counter, and asked, &quot;What will you give me for this?&quot; he will more than likely believe you&#039;re serious about selling, and make you an offer. If you walk in empty-handed, lean over the counter, and say &quot;Psst, hey buddy, what&#039;ll gimme for silver?&quot; he&#039;s going to be suspicious and thus more secretive. He is simply protecting his interests and, quite possibly, his inventory. It&#039;s not quite the same as negotiating on a car. Most car salesmen feel safe in that the potential buyer isn&#039;t going to hit them on the head and take the car and contents of the safe. Keep in mind he&#039;s competing with other PM dealers, including eBay and Craig&#039;s List. He&#039;s dealing in a commodity that is easily transportable.&nbsp; And if he&#039;s doing any amount of large volume of business, then losing an ounce or two here and there isn&#039;t really bothering him, especially if he doesn&#039;t think you&#039;re serious.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
