<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1658125, member: 26302&quot;]Yes it can, but I have found that if you are quiet about it and never interrupt a deal, it can be done. If you happen to overhear an offer, and the dealer declines, I see nothing wrong with going up to the person and making your own offer. What I have seen more typically is someone interrupting a potential deal saying, &quot;heck I will pay you more than that&quot;, or similar. If you are respectful, never interrupt, and talk to the person wishing to sell AWAY from any tables, then most shows will not &quot;chase you down&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, interrupt a deal at a table, or worst yet try to buy from someone inside someone else&#039;s shop, you will get tossed out on your rear and rightly so. There is a LOT of expenses involved in physically being somewhere, and they deserve the opportunity to profit. </p><p><br /></p><p>Only once have I ever bought from another customer inside a shop, and it was with the owner&#039;s permission. Someone came in with a nice SL half, and wanted more than the owner was comfortable with. I was VERY POLITELY just listening, but when the dealer said no I quietly asked permission if I could talk to the man. That was a rare circumstance, with 100% permission from the shop owner. That is the ONLY way something like that would ever be permissible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
