<p>[QUOTE="aubade21, post: 1980072, member: 44104"]As a buyer it is frustrating not to have some sort of an idea of the price a dealer wants for the majority of their coins. As the OP said, sometimes you might only have a couple of hours to attend a show. It's not uncommon to have 2-3 people at a dealers table vying for their attention. I don't want to be rude, but on the other hand, my time is valuable. In the past, I've waited patiently for a dealer without stickered prices only to find out that the first coin I select is 2x or 3x average market value. Now, it could be that price was an anomaly, but chances are, I'm not going to bother with that dealer again. Could I be missing out by not asking after every other coin I might like? Maybe. But I could also be missing out on a great coin from another dealer I'm not able to get to, and is transparent with their prices. I understand that coin prices fluctuate, but from a customer service standpoint, posted prices should be the rule rather than the exception.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
