<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1482695, member: 23885"]Wow the principal here seems obvious. You have people taking time out of their day to physically drive to a show with money in hand ready to buy your product, but stipulations are in place which state that trading collector to collector is bad etiquette.. Or furthermore that you can be kicked out of a show for trading? This does not make sense to me in a number of ways. The obvious which (only an opinion) is that there is nothing nefarious about trading coins with fellow collectors in a secure, coin friendly environment. Secondly, if you can wrap your mind around the very conservative nature of any such rule and accept it… I still don’t believe that it would make economic sense for the dealers. Wouldn’t you want to create an environment that would bring in as many customers as possible? I personally as a customer will take it as a personal insult if I’m ever removed from a coin show for trading with other customers. I have a feeling that in wake of the internet there is a progression towards a more liberal numismatic community; not one contorted by any ruling authority.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
