<p>[QUOTE="rick, post: 52634, member: 1235"]Spyder, there's a lesson to be had there. I can see why Midas felt as if there was a possibility that he should have stayed quiet. I can understand why he did what he did, but it was the wrong place, and the coin dealer might have been far more helpful than you think... either way, it was his place of business. On the other hand, we all probably feel that urge to help out, because there probably isn't a person, here, over 30 that doesn't forsee this same situation happening to their children someday...</p><p> </p><p>In the same situation, I might have stayed quiet and gave the coin dealer a chance to say his piece first. It's professional courtesy to give him the first chance at bat inside the walls of his own business. But, I don't see why he would have been upset if you made him a book sale, unless he planned to lowball the kid, so maybe you did the right thing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
