<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1868432, member: 112&quot;]It is. If you go to a store to buy something, you find it, it&#039;s marked $25, you take it to the cashier. Do you then ask the cashier - will you take $20 for this ? Nope, you don&#039;t. And you dang well know if you did he/she would look at you like you were crazy. But coin collectors do it everyday. And often, with every coin they look at. Why ? What you should do is say OK, or no thanks.</p><p><br /></p><p>If go buy something at a store on a regular basis, how often do you return it to the store to get a refund ? I&#039;m betting it&#039;s not 3 times in 8 months. And it&#039;s definitely not after somebody else has told you that you shouldn&#039;t have bought that. I can understand a return once in a great while, so can the dealer, but doing it on regular basis will get old in a hurry. And yes, 3 times in 8 months is a regular basis.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you go to buy something, do you ever ask to take pictures of it so you can ask somebody else&#039;s approval, and do it on a regular basis ? I pretty much guarantee you don&#039;t. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you go into a con shop, repeatedly and often, do you ask the dealer to get the same coins out so you can look at them again ? Once should be enough. If you want to know of he has anything in that is new, then ask that. If he doesn&#039;t, say OK thanks, look around at what is on display and maybe buy some little thing, or just leave and say see ya next time. But if you continually ask to see coins over a period of time and never buy any, or return them when you do buy, then you better count on the dealer getting tired of seeing you.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s a two way street folks, give and take both ways. The dealer, if he&#039;s a decent guy, will be more than glad to work his butt off for you. And he will go the extra mile to make you happy. But you have to give too. And you do that by not making him work with no reward, by being considerate towards him just like he is being considerate towards you. You the customer are NOT always right, even though many think they are. It&#039;s a symbiotic relationship - each depends on the other. And it is your responsibility to see to it that it stays that way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
