<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1348330, member: 23885"]The guy has been dealing coins for 27 + years, but he mostly deals in raw coins. He was very nice at our last coin club meeting, but I noticed that some of his coins have been dipped. That was a major turn off. I don't believe he appreciated my box of only slabbed coins, but I guess we can equate that to a difference in opinion. Here lies the problem. He knows 100x more about nuismatics than me, and is pretty much the man around here. We live in an isolated area in Southern Maryland. Because of my recent job and the fact that I get paid based upon commission I must network to assist in maximizing profits. I will say this one time. I will never ever dip coins/doctor coins in any artificial way. I made this clear to my boss. On a different note, I had to travel to all of the other pawn shops (there are no coinstores in the area) and introduce myself. They do not deal with coins. Matter a fact they kick them out to the man I speak of. We have already started to do business with one of the shops and I do not believe it has been well received by a certain member of the community. I do not want to get off on the wrong foot with this gentleman. I do respect that he has been running things around here for 25+ years. How do I maintain a friendly cordial relationship with this guy? Even though he is the big name in town I spoke with a top name in MD and he has never even heard of him. Am I in the wrong here? How would you handle this delicate situation? TY</p><p><br /></p><p>~Jason[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
