<p>[QUOTE=&quot;squaredealer23, post: 808628, member: 17426&quot;]<b>Not a good place to visit in person</b></p><p><br /></p><p>I know I am responding to an old post, but I just stopped at Delaware Valley Rare Coins today. I had passed it several times in my local travels and I have seen their ads on the back of Coin World. I had checked out their website recently and saw some PCGS graded CC Morgans that I wanted to check out in person (as my CT friends always recommend!!). I am also in the market for authenticated key coins, like the 1909 S vdb and 1955 DDO Lincoln. Maybe a 3-Legger. But I want to see them before I buy them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Their website states: &quot;If you live in the vicinity, or are visiting the greater Philadelphia/Wilmington metropolitan area, please stop in and see us. Our gallery hours are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.&quot; They need to change that invitation, because I have never felt more unwelcome. They have NO coins on display at all. Literally--zero. The owner explained tome that they don&#039;t have to since they primarily deal in &quot;high end certified coins.&quot; At that point I told him I was interested in PCGS MS CC Morgans. His reply: &quot;I don&#039;t have any.&quot; I said I had seen some on his website. He said they were shipped out for a coin show; didn&#039;t know if/when they were coming back.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There was no offer to get in touch with me if those coins or other CC&#039;s come in. I asked if I could come in and look at a coin that they advertised, since I lived nearby. He said I could, but it sounded like he would rather I stay away.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>By the way, I was dressed in a suit. And the coins I was inquiring about cost $500 to $infinity.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I would have loved to look at some of the other high end coins that they sell, but I felt very unwelcome. Why would a high end seller be so discouraging of someone who wanted to see the coins in person? Why bother inviting people in to the shop if there are no coins there? Only to get people to come in to sell their coins to the dealer, I guess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
