<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hotpocket, post: 1998755, member: 44182&quot;]I guess I must be in violation of the rules.&nbsp; Here&#039;s what happened at the most recent coin show I attended, where I was very interested in a german coin:</p><p><br /></p><p>Dealer: &quot;The price on that coin is $450&quot;</p><p>Me: &quot;What would your best price be?&quot;</p><p>Dealer: &quot;I could give it to you for $400, but that&#039;s the lowest I can go.&quot;</p><p>Me: &quot;So if I offered you $350 cash, you would say no?&quot;</p><p><i>pause...</i></p><p>Dealer: &quot;I can do $375, but that&#039;s it.&quot;</p><p>Me: &quot;Sold!&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Should I not have asked, even though the dealer said it was his best price? I think not - and if he thought I was rude or pushy, he should have had the conviction to stick to his $400 price.&nbsp; But he clearly wanted the sale and came down again.&nbsp; I dont consider this to be insulting behavior, just finding the optimal price for buyer and seller.</p><p><br /></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
