<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1226348, member: 26302&quot;]I like you and your posts Pilkenton, and I agree that the dealer was needlessly rude. However, I am sorry to say that overall I agree with Confederatehalf. A coin dealer, like any small businessman is always busy with something. To call him up, let the phone ring 20 times, (should have told you he was busy), and then ask him a question that had absolutely nothing to do with either buying a coin from him or a coin you have bought from him, is rude in itself.</p><p><br /></p><p>A dealer&#039;s time is valuable, no advice is &quot;free&quot;. If you are calling a dealer at his work, then his time is valuable. Should I be able to call up a random law office and ask their advice on a legal issue? How about calling up a stock broker, telling him I will not buy through him, but asking him for some stock tips? A dealer will give you advice if he believes it will help a sale, and he should. Chit chatting about coins is what coin clubs and places like this are for, chit chatting with a dealer is really only done on his side to build a dealer-customer relation. You asked him about something he in no way could benefit from, so I could see why he was short. A dealer will go broke spending all of his day chit chatting with people who aren&#039;t buying or selling to him.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
