<p>[QUOTE="praetorian2000, post: 1088802, member: 16106"]Is there an etiquette for shopping at a coin store? i work 4 minutes from Harlan j berk in Chicago and would love to go and pick up a coin or two. It’ll be cheaper than ordering it online…no shipping charges AND I get it the same day I pay for it. prior to going in, I would know exactly which coin I want and the most I’m willing to pay. I wouldn’t be interested in shopping around. I can’t discuss specifics about coins such as low mintage, high mintage, different minting places or any history of the coin. I can’t look at a coin and guess the grade. And whenever I shop for anything, I want to be able to get in and out of the sotre in under 5 minutes. Anything more is too long, which is why I usually shop online. My concern is being taken advantage of OR not being treated the way a shopper who can discuss specifics about a coin is treated.</p><p> Any suggestions or should I not worry about any of this and just go in get what I want and get out?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
