<p>[QUOTE="bkozak33, post: 1912044, member: 30309"]I needed a fairly common 1927 peace dollar for my dansco today. At the show I probably saw 10-15 dealers with one I liked priced around 100 bucks. So it was getting late, and I decided to pull the trigger at this one booth. The coin was marked 100 so i told the guy I would take it. He asked me if I was a dealer and I said no. He said then my price would be 120.00. I asked why and he pointed to a sign that said the prices listed are for dealers if your not a dealer add 20% I walked over to one of the other dozens of dealers that had a 1927 and bought theirs.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know dealers wholesale to each other, but I'm still thinking why he operates that way. I think it would be difficult getting people to pay 20% over sticker price. When I'm selling coins if I would take a 100.00 from a dealer, I would take a 100 from anyone. I dont see the difference. Oh well[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
