<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 1984384, member: 6641&quot;]You will find rudeness in any business sector if you sample enough businesses.&nbsp; I think coin dealers and collectors may be more sensitive to it because of the passion, desire to get the best deal, and desire to make money.&nbsp; By the nature of most hobbies, as collectors you have dealings with a wider range of sellers than you would in general business dealings (unless you are in sales yourself).&nbsp; This at least applies to me.&nbsp; You are more likely to get more rudeness by sheer numbers than you may be use too. </p><p><br /></p><p>I just went through the process of selecting and buying a piece of granite for a home project.&nbsp; I talked with as many as 6 different suppliers and as many installers. Most of them had poor customer service and some were real jerks.&nbsp; I was the one with the money ready and willing to spend it and these knuckleheads couldn&#039;t figure out how to provide even mediocre service.&nbsp; Tomorrow (I hope) a piece of marble will be installed because I couldn&#039;t get two different suppliers to give me what I wanted at their price - go figure. Two installers we walked away from during the process and the one doing the work waited almost a full month before ordering the granite we wanted after giving them a sizable deposit.&nbsp; Weeks later the supplier then broke the granite during transport and the went radio silent when we tried to get another slab from a different batch they had of the same granite type.&nbsp; We moved on and gave up on what we really wanted.&nbsp; Sometimes, that&#039;s just the way it goes.</p><p><br /></p><p>My point is, I do not let it get to me and just spend my money somewhere that wants it and appreciates the fact that I am willing to spend money for a product if I feel the price is fair and the dealer is respectful.&nbsp; (There are plenty of those types of dealers at any show) I also understand that it must work both ways!&nbsp; When a deal doesn&#039;t work out, still be respectful and part ways as you would a friend.&nbsp; That type of behavior is what we should all hope for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
