[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 8407, member: 669"]How about a few characteristics of a bad dealer, in no particular order of importance: 1. When you go into his shop as a stranger, you also leave as a stranger. 2. When he sees you looking at a group of world coins he says in a condescending voice "Those are only foreign stuff". 3. He has a bunch of overgraded, overpriced stuff that he tries to push on you. 4. If you are (or test him by acting as if you are) a Newbie, he brushes off your questions. 5. If you look at any of his low end or junk box coins (even though he may have let some gems creep in through his own ignorance) he writes you off as a cheapskate. 6.
