<p>[QUOTE="mrbrklyn, post: 481616, member: 4381"]I don't believe this and I think it is an ethics problem. I don't think one should have to walk into a dealer with a grey sheet and 20 years of background not to be taken. If a guy walks in under these circumstances and buys the coins for a reasonable margin over melt, that is one thing. What happened in that case was really something else entirely. If you walk into my Pharmacy you depend on my for professional expertise, and not to get bad information for more expensive drugs with higher margins. When your in a superior position with knowledge or education, you have ethical responsibilities. And I will not purchase from them again for a looong time. Every time I walk into Stacks I KNOW I'm buying coins at well over market values. Sometimes I just get so hard up to buy a coin ... any coin ... that I go in there anyway.
