<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 653021, member: 15199&quot;]1. Hi, are you buying from the public today?</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ...............usually always &quot;yes&quot; is the answer, who knows what might walk in <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>2. I have a XXXXXXXXXX coin here and I am asking&nbsp; $xxxx, but I am </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; willing to negotiate. ( usually use about 20-30% higher than I will</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; really take, unless a PCGS or NCG coin, and then closer to CDN prices).</p><p><br /></p><p>3. If they look at it and say not interested, move on as if it is a negotiating </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; techinique, they will call you back. If they would only be interested in much less or think the coin has problems, they will let you walk on.</p><p><br /></p><p>4. If they are willing to negotiate, do so in good faith, don&#039;t waste their time or yours. Don&#039;t argue their grading. Say what you think/know it is and negotiate from that point. If they seem resistant to spending cash, I usually say I am interested in BU lincolns, wheats,rolls. Errors, or eclectic oddities, what do you have for trading? If you can get what you want with no cash changes hands, it is usually a good deal for both. I really use the term &quot;oddball&quot; rather than eclectic most of the time <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>5. Remain respectful, even if they are not. Often this ( unfortunately) is a bargaining technique for some. Don&#039;t compromise your own values for a good deal. </p><p><br /></p><p>At least this is how I usually do it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
