[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1482721, member: 75105"]Here is my two cent piece. If I was in charge of a coin show, I would not mind a one time transaction. If a customer bumped into another, and saw they had something they wanted, and bought it, no biggie. Now, if a customer was standing near a dealer, and another customer brought in a coin to sell, the dealer offers $300, but then the customer goes "That's nuts! I would give you $600 for it", then I would probably ask them to leave. Or, if a customer came in and set up, without telling anyone, and not paying the "fee" then I would ask them to leave. Basically, I would allow a casual, one-time transaction between customers. It's not really going to hurt the dealer any. The dealers are there to make money, another customer buying/selling full scale, without paying any kind of charge, is basically a "mooch". It would be no different, if someone sat in a chair next to the bakery department in wal-mart, selling cookies/donuts/etc cheaper than walmart is.[/QUOTE]
