<p>[QUOTE=&quot;treehugger, post: 1367000, member: 28451&quot;]I&#039;ve had better luck with items that were &quot;Buy It Now&quot; with no &quot;Best Offer&quot; tab than I have with the &quot;Best Offer&quot; tab.&nbsp;&nbsp; As mentioned above, if there is an item I like, I will email the seller and make them an offer.&nbsp;&nbsp; In quite a few instances, it is accepted.&nbsp;&nbsp; I guess it&#039;s because he is not trying to employ a marketing strategy.</p><p><br /></p><p>Speaking of that and a little off topic, there is an online dealer named Talisman Coins; they actually have some different and interesting offerings.&nbsp;&nbsp; Anyway, I was looking at the 2012 Canada 1/2-ounce dragon that is currently being sold by the Royal Canadian Mint for $29.99.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you look at the Talisman Coins site, the retail is listed at $59.95, the regular price is listed as $49.95, but the sale price is listed as $39.95.&nbsp;&nbsp; It says you are saving $20.00 when in actuality you are paying $10.00 over the price at the Royal Canadian Mint.&nbsp;&nbsp; To make it worse, the shipping charge is just a tad shy of the $12.99 the RCM charges.&nbsp;&nbsp; Now that&#039;s what I call some effective shystering; sorry, I meant marketing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
