<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pilkenton, post: 1226359, member: 23961&quot;]There is a military collectable dealer in the area.&nbsp; I&#039;ve never bought anything from him.&nbsp; I sold him a knife a few years ago.&nbsp; He doesn&#039;t know me from Adam.&nbsp; I called him a few months ago.&nbsp; I had a huge Revell model of a battleship still sealed in the box.&nbsp; Too big and fragile to eBay.&nbsp; I called him and asked if he was interested.&nbsp; He said no.&nbsp; He then asked for my name, number, and e-mail.&nbsp; He said he&#039;d see what he could do.&nbsp; A few days late, a hobby shop called me.&nbsp; They had a customer looking for something like that.&nbsp; I went to the hobby shop, thinking he was going to buy it and sell it to the customer.&nbsp; The owner called the customer and asked me to wait.&nbsp; He felt that I would get a better price directly from the customer instead of using him as the middleman.&nbsp; A few days after the transaction, the military store owner called me and asked if all went well.&nbsp; Now that&#039;s class.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>There is a comic book shop in the area.&nbsp; I don&#039;t buy comics to collect.&nbsp; I went in with a stack of comics.&nbsp; I wanted his opinion.&nbsp; It was kind of busy there, but the owner took his time going through my comics.&nbsp; He told me which ones to sell and which ones not.&nbsp; He spent a good half hour teaching me about comic collecting.&nbsp; When I left he gave me an Overstreet price guide.&nbsp; It was two years old, but he gave it to me.&nbsp; He also gave me his card and told me to call him anytime.&nbsp; I never bought or sold anything to this guy, and I&#039;ve never been back in the shop, but when I call him, he recognizes my voice.&nbsp; He calls me the eBay dude.&nbsp; Now that&#039;s class.</p><p><br /></p><p>These are the way to run a small business.&nbsp; If you&#039;re busy, say so.&nbsp; No matter what the reason is, nobody deserves to be treated the way the coin shop owner treats his customers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
