Just because one has a few coins to sell and an internet connection does not make a dealer. But its just something we have to deal with in these days. In the 'old days' (yea, I guess its true, we become old when we start talking like this. I might begin to yell at kids to 'stay off my lawn', but alas, I suspect few would even know that reference) being a dealer was fairly hard. It took reference books, printed catalogs, experience.... Now, anyone can be a dealer. I guess thats just part of the new world. And with this we encounter problems just such as this. Not that it didnt happen before, but rarely. A dealer would simply not let this happen at all, they had a reputation to uphold, which was hard earned. Now, a situation like this means nothing to the 'dealer'. There are plenty of new clients out there to replace any lost.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
