<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoinOKC, post: 53174, member: 2146&quot;]I used to frequent a local coin shop years ago until the owner went out of business.&nbsp; I hadn&#039;t seen the owner for many years until he opened another coin shop in the area about 2 years ago.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One day, I was in the store when a lady came in who knew absolutely nothing about coins.&nbsp; She wanted to buy some &quot;silver dollars&quot; for a friend.&nbsp; The owner sold her a couple of well-worn Morgans for $15.00 apiece which otherwise would have been in the junk silver pile.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>After the lady left, the owner said, &quot;That <b>$!#%^&amp;*@</b> lady, I should have sold her more than that, she&#039;s so dumb&quot;.&nbsp; Then he looked at me and said, &quot;Why don&#039;t you get out of here, too, there&#039;s nothing here for you to buy&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I was shocked beyond belief.&nbsp; Here was a guy who had been my friend for years and whom I had spent thousands of dollars with.&nbsp; Needless to say, I left and have never darkened his door again.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ve since heard that the owner had gotten into drugs very badly, but I can&#039;t say for sure one way or the other.&nbsp; I know that sometimes when I drive by his store late at night, his car will be parked out front and he&#039;ll be inside sleeping on the couch.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Kinda sad, really...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
