<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Chip Kirkpatrick, post: 4735140, member: 101265&quot;]When buying silver became a craze in the 70s, a good friend decided to get into it. He set up at his mother’s trophy shop. I mentioned my mother might want to sell some coins and he assured me he would take good care of her. She eventually did take some silver to him and identified herself as my mother. He ripped her off so badly I never spoke to him again and we had been friends for over 20 years. I loaned him money when he needed it. </p><p>Happily he disappeared 6 months later and we think he ripped off the wrong son ( I had an alibi).</p><p><br /></p><p>then a few years back my wife inherited some flatware we did not need. I went to 17 silver buyers and the offers varied from $700 to $1700. A thousand dollar span. I then saw a buyer was coming to town for one day and promised the best prices. I went to where he was. There were 3 lines of sellers and buyers and they offered me $700. I raised such a fuss that 6he other sellers all left. They then offered $1700, same as my highest bid. I reminded them they were advertising the best prices and demanded $1800. They actually paid it to get rid of me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
